I really don't have any plans for the summer. I'm going to the beach for a weekend and then I will probably go to Charlotte and visit my cousin. My grandbaby is coming to for two weeks to drive me crazy and then I will need the rest of the summer to get my mind back from keeping him.

The best book I have read this year!
The best book that I have read this year is Bud, Not Buddy! The reason I like this book is because it is about a boy that lives a foster home and the 12 year old that lives there is very mean to him. The case worker comes to take Bud away and he realizes that it might be better to live with a group of girs then to stay there. He runs away and instead of going back, he tries to find his father.
Names of Gods
I love using Tagxedo and I know that my class will love using it as well. This site has alot of wonderful features that wordle do not have. I'm going to use this in class as soon as possible. The reason I used the names of Gods, because I love angels and I love the Lord.

Wikipedia Comparison
When I went to Wikipedia and type in "computer", all I got was one article and the history was included. It gave me background on computers from 1940-1945. It also gave me information on how large the computer use to be to the size they are now and how they consumed alot of power.
When I went to the Britannica site and type in "computer" so many sites popped up about computers that I didn't even know where to begin to look for the information that I had seem on wikipedia.

Modify activity Befunky
I would use the computer lab at the end of the year and have the students to use blogger.com to create a blog and then befunky to add pictures to describe how they are feeling since school is about out.
