Trying out Scrapblog

Posted by Camila Sousa , Labels:

This is an amazing web tool that I came across. It is easy and very simple to use! I decided to give it a shot and try it out. There are many features that we are able to incorporate in our presentation but I did not have the creativity to add at this time. Tools such as the ability to make use of different frames, add videos or voice, among others.

Check out my second attempt of the scrapblog tool:

Trying Tagxedo

Posted by Camila Sousa , Labels:

TAGXEDO This is a great web tool. Thanks to Ana Maria Menezes again for showing us this amazing tool with loads of possibilities!

Check Mark with words from my classroom blog (Sudley E.S.) The only down side I have noticed is that when you create the word cloud the words move and as you put your cursor on them they get bigger. However when you save your work this feature is lost so the possibility of movement is not shown! :-(
It does not mean it is not neat though!

The Phantom of the Opera

Posted by Camila Sousa , Labels:

My husband and I love going to plays and we enjoy doing something special for our b'days. Last year for my birthday we went to New York to watch the Lion King at Broadway. It was an amazing play and it was extra special because it was my husband's first time in NY. We are always working so hard that when we have the oportunity we like to treat ourselves to theaters, plays, shows, circus, etc.  
This year for my husband's birthday we are going to Baltimore to watch The Phantom of the Opera. Have you ever gone to a theater to watch this play? What do you think of it?
