=Science Shadows= 2) Click on video and watch/observe/listen 3) Post replies of 2 statements you learned and 1 question you may still have || I have also made additional posts for the students to discuss the moon phases by taking a picture, creating a link to sites, exploring websites to allow more exposure to the moon phases. In addition, I recently added a post to where the kids can go home, take a picture of their shadow, upload and discuss the time and direction of the shadows. ||

 * Reflections:** || I was pleased with how easy the students were able to create an account, log on and get started. I was more than pleased to see the children so quickly respond their thoughts. We did have a learning moment when some students chose to use this platform as a more "social" communication, but we discussed it as a whole class on what is/isn't appropriate online communication behavior. One huge frustration was that the students could click on the video, but the netbooks would not allow them to be able to watch it. They were only able to listen to it. As this was incredibly frustrating, they were able to listen to the video and still complete the activity. I love how the students go home and immediately log onto edmodo to make responses, replies, etc. They LOVE it! We have invited the parents to join so they too can watch/observe/monitor their students experience a technology transformation in education.
