Welcome to Yes, This Will Be On the Test.
Waving to visitors, new followers, and fellow A to Z
participants. I’m sending virtual hugs to you all for taking a moment to stop
by.
I’ll be sharing my “take-aways.” All those snigglets,
golden nuggets, and lessons learned from other creative sources.
I'm a crazy reader. Always have been. I was the kid under the covers with the flashlight.
I love the feel of a print book in my hands, but e-books have a special place in my heart.
Why?
FLEXIBILITY AND INSTANT ACCESS
The book I'm reading never leaves my side. Besides my Kindle, I have the app on my phone, my computer at home, and my computer at school, and my tablet.
TEACHING TOOL
I can project the Kindle app from my computer onto my Smartboard in the class room. This allows my students to follow text and pictures when I read aloud wonderful graphic novels like Alan Silberberg's, MILO, STICKY NOTES AND BRAIN FREEZE or his THE AWESOME ALMOST 100% TRUE ADVENTURES OF MATT AND CRAZ.
ADJUSTABLE FONT SIZE
If you're over 40 - enough said. If you're under 40 - just wait.
COOL COVERS
Just got this super fun cover from Disneyland.
TAKE AWAY:
My Kindle means more reading time and instant purchases of all those wonderful e-books being written by so many of you out there in Bloglandia. For someone like me who's all about instant gratification - that's solid gold.
I still buy multiple hard cover books every month for myself and my classroom. Huzzah for print books.
Are you an e-reader person?
