How to Watch the Internet in Real-Time
I find fascinating articles and information on Twitter, this article caught my eye this summer. I thought it was fascinating enough to share with you. It is amazing how we do not realize, statistically speaking, how rapidly the internet grows each second as accounts are set-up, email is sent, advertisements make money, and much more. This link How to Watch the Internet in Real-Time starts at zero when you click on it and from there the internet statistics change at an amazing rate.
Claudette Colvin, Twice Toward Justice by Phillip Hoose
As teachers consider plans for teaching about Civil Rights, Black History Month, or other related standards, the award winning (Newbery Honor, Robert F. Sibert Honor, YALSA Award for Excellence in Non-fiction finalist, National Book Award Winner, and Jane Addams Children's Book Award, Honor) story Claudette Colvin: Twice Toward Justice by Phillip Hoose is an outstanding story that illustrates how students can make a difference. Claudette Colvin, is still alive at 75 years old. I read the following article The Story of Claudette Colvin: Students as Historians this summer and felt this story is one I wanted to post on my blog and teachers might consider incorporating in their teaching. Check out the linked sites as well as the book available (at West Side and the Middle School) in the district.
