It has been fun trying out some new to me resources during the Winter Games. I was pleased with what I accomplished considering current projects that have deadlines and taking time to watch the Olympics. The Olympics have been great - lots of excitement. The television coverage has been great. I have enjoyed the extras - the background information.
Okay now my tally. (I realize I am late as this was to be done last night.)
1. Go Back and Cite Your Sources! - didn't enter
2. Back up your Data. - didn't enter but I did buy an external hard drive.
3. Organize your Research! - actually as I got working on my presentation - things became more disorganized, but previous organization helped me find things.
4. Expand Your Knowledge
A - Used Google Maps to plot where George Iles lived in England.
B. Created a timeline with TimeToast
E. Created a surname visualization using Wordie
3 tasks completed - Gold
5. Write, Write, Write
