LiveBinders...Ally Sheedy Says Yes!



I remember when calculators were all the rage.




Quick Magic trick: Go type 0.7734 into a calculator and turn it upside down.

Did you get this?



See...I told you..Magic!

Now if you think that is motivational, try this

Mobile Motivation: Learning With Mobile Devices

Or...when all else fails, bring Number 5.

LiveBinders...Bender Says Yes!



Recently, I gave a PD on Twitter to a group of educators. Working with new Twitter-ers reminds me of my first time...

Yes it was awkward and new...very much like dating.



Lit Maven...that was quite a jump?

Right...sorry let me explain.

When you are on Twitter you pick up followers. I remember being shocked that people were following me, "Who were these people?"



I explained to the group that Twitter is very much like E-Harmony. Your information is paired up with those that are most like you.

Which can be bad in some cases to be so much alike.

Case in point


So you might need some help getting along with your new followers.

This LiveBinder is the glue.

Relate, Collaborate, Create

Of course there are exceptions to the rule...opposites can attract...especially in the Breakfast Club

LiveBinders...PeeWee Says Yes!



I know how to speak, English, British and Pig Latin.

Due to technology, other creatures are learning English too.

Apparently Cat's got your tongue...is true.



Dog's can do it too...


But...sometimes it's just too hard.


So thank goodness for this LiveBinder
Learning English Online

And when all else fails...


watch Peewee's Playhouse.

The Secret Word of the Day


So remember if anyone says "look" today...SCREAM REAL LOUD!

The Lit Maven just might try that today...

LiveBinders...Napoleon Says Yes!



Self Esteem....



You just have to love yourself....



as the great Oscar Wilde said,

"Be yourself, everyone else is taken."


Which is comforting for this family



And for all other Awkward Families...I have found this helpful LiveBinder

Here is a collection of "Feel Good About Your Self Music"..

Leading the Way...

Napoleon Dynamite


Billy Joel


And a really nice rendition of Born this Way (originally performed by Lady Gaga)

LiveBinders...A Goonie Says Yes!




Hey Thomas!




When I was a kid, I thought all Engineers were train drivers.



Confused?

Me too!


When I was a kid I also thought trains could talk.



Sorry Thomas...reality is cruel sometimes....

But good news...I found a LiveBinder that can help out a Doubting Thomas.

Inspiring Elementary Engineering...Year 1

So yes...Engineering is more than just a "train of thought"...it is building with
Data...

Did someone say Data?

LiveBinders....Jack Black Says Yes!




I stumbled upon this binder...

Digital Curation for School Librarians and Other Tech-Types

Curator...sort of a big job.

One who makes decisions

and you know what that means...




Yes...with great power comes great responsibility...


So...

if your head demagnetizes your video collection...put on your acting pants and make new ones.

LiveBinders...Ben Stiller Says Yes!




Content Literacy....communicating about stuff in a literate manner.



Yikes...good thing I found this LiveBinder.

Content Literacy

So how do you teach about things in an engaging manner?

Wax on, wax off?



Wrenches?



Talking Green Puppets?


Which got me thinking, we need more Content Literacy Specialists Training Centers...

although...not as "Derrick" would say:

A Center for Ants
