I love your idea of combining the listening activity with physical movement/exercise.Mrs. Tenkelyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15943016358147486172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4074105217135338281.post-78766577666938025252010-10-10T09:34:56.547-05:002010-10-10T09:34:56.547-05:00I've been thinking about this a lot lately.

It is science storage and storage for an evening aerobics class. The class uses those giant balls and during the day they just sit there. <br /><br />I'm considering asking if I can pull them out and see if they work in the classroom.<br /><br />Also, a little tiny different thing: I have an XO laptop from OLPC. I pulled it for Fun Friday and it completely hooked in one young lady. It isn't nearly as powerful as the MacBooks but it was a great hook for that one student.<br /><br />Okay, let's mix up the classrooms a bit, knock tradition on it's butt and start changing education.BKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12880121067443145641noreply@blogger.com
