Thing #10 - light bulbs





Just in the nick of time....Back to my cup-of-tea, lots of visual stimulation. I browsed the comic strip generator sites, but Image Chef is more fun for a quick image and seems more user friendly. If I had more personal photos on on Flikr (or even on a flash drive) at this time, I could have a blast with Image Chef.

This application will be a little more engaging for elementary (probably 3rd (?) grade, maybe 4th grade and up). Even keeping the kids away from the Simpsons, there is enough variety for just about any student. Right off the bat, the kids could use the greeting card generator (easily applied to any subject). The 'wanted' poster could be a blast, science - wanted butterfly, social studies - wanted conductors for underground railroad, math - wanted polygons, language arts - wanted verbs, reading - wanted bad guy from the story. The posibilities for exposure to technology is fantastic.
