hello once again people,
now this would really put a spin on what we learnt in psychology class check out www.yourbabycanread.com. this site shows how we can take advantage of the development that is taking place in a baby's brain as well as throughout their early childhood by exposing them to various stimuli. i would really like to see your comments about what this site is claiming can be done.

hello again folks,
this is another very informative site, well actually it's a couple of pages on a site but the site itself is quite interesting as well, it's www.fieldmuseum.org/carver/. it is about george washington carver an ex-slave. carver was a scientist and educator among other things. there are people who even believe that he invented peanut butter, but that is uncertain. what stood out to me about carver's work was something he invented called the jesup wagon. this was a kind of mobile classroom, sort of 'education for all' in the olden days. the site itself www.fieldmuseum.org is also offers a great wealth of information about all sorts of other interesting stuff and museum exhibits, so have a look see and maybe you will find something that tickles your fancy, but be sure to check out george washington carver and his story of triumph over adversity.

Hey people,
now this is a really cool, really fun educational website and I'm sure that most of you will be familiar with the name. It's www.sesamestreet.org and it's so much fun. It's like a face book for toddlers, only no one gets to see your child's picture but you and your child. There are all sorts of activities for you to do with your child and ones they can do on their own. There's colouring letter sounds, numbers, science stuff and all the sesame street videos you can imagine, even from when we were kids and I know for some of that's a long time. The site even offers you the convenience of sorting these activities and videos according to subject, theme and character for your viewing preference. It also allows for your child to develop a profile called 'my street' whereby they can sort their favourite videos and games for quick access. There's even a section for parents. I find that teachers can also use alot of the ideas and videos as instructional tools in the classroom. Of course the name of the site alone lets you know that they can be trusted. So please check it out, by yourself or with a kid it's fun. ENJOY.

Hi everyone,
My name is Ria. Currently i am pursuing my bachelors degree in education and hoping to major in special education. I am the mother of one three year old full of life little girl. This blog is being done for a course that i am currently involved in named Educational Technology. So far i have learned a couple new and interesting things but, the course has only recently begun so i'm hoping that it will get even more interesting in the next coming weeks. My dream is to become a teacher and one day open my very own early and after care facility for students while at the same time becoming an architect. This degree is one of the first steps that will get me well on the way to accomplishing all of my aspirations.

Bye for now and tune in in the not too distant future for more updates
