Creating the video was so much easier than I thought it was going to be. Let me just say that "dread" is not a harsh enough word to use to describe what I was feeling all day preparing for this video. I used my phone to record myself giving instructions and if you have an iPhone you just send it to You Tube. I did have to send it more than once because the upload failed the first time due to my not having a You Tube channel??? whatever that is...lol! I did not like putting the music on the video and will most likely remove it at a later date. It is too loud and I can't figure out how to make it any quieter. I have the setting all the way over to voice but it did not get any better (just my opinion). I tried to add a caption with my email address but did not get that to work either. Guess I am still going to have to play some more. This is going to be a valuable tool in the classroom now that I know how easy it is to use. I would love to video lessons and upload them to the blog for students that are absent. I hope everyone has the best of luck with uploads.

You Tube Video
Yay me!!! I just created my first You Tube video. I took the opportunity to let new parents to my classroom know how to get in touch with me. I encourage parent contact. Our school will be implementing Common Core this year and I think that is all the more reason why parents should know how to reach me. This should tie into any unit that I do, depending on when the parent needs me. It takes all of us working together to get our children educated. Communication IS the key!
