technology rocks. seriously.

technology rocks. seriously.

There are times when you out of the blue, someone offers you a true gem.

I received one right after our CIT meeting as everyone had started to disperse. This was an awesome moment...Michelle Fikac casually shared an AMAZING blog with me, which I have totally fallen in love with.

technology rocks. seriously.

Just the name is way cool.

There are SO many cool technology resources within this blog (I guess you can tell that from the title of the blog), and there are also WORDS. Really cool WORDS perfectly put together in a way that will really speak to you.

You all know how much I love quotes (not to mention my CIT Possibilitarian Handbook) and how I am trying to find any and all opportunities to stay away from a "Cool Whip Diet" :)

I've only skimmed the surface of the coolness within this blog.

UPDATE: OK, super. My embed codes are blocked because the print outs are hosted on www. scribd.com...which is apparently blocked in NISD (BUMMER). As you can see, I worked on this post last night from home at 2:12 AM. I don't have blocked sites at home :) Anyway, you can still view the blog technology rocks. seriously. and small versions of the printouts. To download, I guess you will have to do from home, if you are interested. Again, bummer. I love surprises, don't you! :) Keeps us on our toes.

Dare to Be Remarkable

Ordinary and Extraordinary

You can download these.

You can print these.

You can just pull them up display them on your morning announcements.

I just think they are awesome words that our kids need an opportunity to see AND we need an opportunity to see as well.

I was thinking what a COOL desktop publishing challenge this could be. Students could collaborate and create a message that they need to deliver using simple words. Text. Finding the feeling and interpreting the words with fonts and colors to truly share that message. Lovely :)
