Our Tube

It is certainly true that you can waste tremendous amounts of time on You Tube! Where to start? Gardens, Italy, food, gardens in Italy, food in Italy. So many choices! I settled on Monterosso on the Cinque Terre where we stayed for two nights last month. Now I can show everyone one of the shops we went in! It was hard to stop at looking at just a few videos. I think You Tube would be great to show the Global Reading Challenges that we have around the county. We could have the final challenge in each region and then the grand challenge. Teachers could show it to students who were interested in the program and drum up even more excitement than before. I don't know about the whole issue of kids being filmed and their images appearing on You Tube. Maybe we could give them a special password? Not sure how that works, but it's an idea.
