Task 8 Glogster

I watched the video and explanation about Glogster and explored ways that teachers use Glogster in the classroom. Although I did not create a Glog at this time, I was very impressed with the interactive and multisensory aspects of these “posters.” I am planning on doing something during this school year quite similar to the Poetry Glog Project posted at http://2pointohteaching.blogspot.com/2009/01/glogster-in-classroom-and-light-sabres.html.
I also liked the Glog that a teacher created that had a collection of web sites the students could explore, organized by categories. I used Quiz Star (quizstar.com) to create a multiple choice quiz for a Wordly Wise lesson. There are quite a few word games that I think my students would enjoy at http://quizstar.com/popup/searchEntertainment.php?term=Word+Games
I tried using http://rubistar.4teachers.org/index.php to create a writing rubric, but I found the directions very confusing and frustrating. I used a table instead.
