As long as you feel comfortable sharing her with others, then who is to question what goes on in your personal relationships? Your post made me laugh out loud – really. Nice work!
Karen Robb commented on the post, If you give them a link, they will want to click it.., on the site Global Turner 2 weeks, 5 days ago

Loved your post! This one of my favourite book series and not because I enjoy it so much but because my own children and my students love it so much. I really enjoy watching how they react when we read it and […]

I saw this article on my Zite app today and I thought I would share it here for my fellow COETAILers as we have been discussing copyright laws.

I wrote a post a little while ago entitled “Just because you […]

Thanks for this link. I have children of my own and I teach grade 3 and I think that there is some valuable information here for us to look at together. I will definitely bookmark this site and share it with parents.

So, this week COETAILers have been inquiring into cyber bullying and the use of technology to intentionally and repeatedly cause harm to others. It is a deep and emotionally charged topic that has pervaded […]
Karen Robb wrote a new post, Just because you can, does it mean you should?, on the site Mind the Gap 1 month ago

One afternoon while browsing through my RSS reader and the recommended readings for the week I stumbled upon a video that made me sit up and take notice.

I was watching Larry Lessig talk about copyright laws […]
Karen Robb commented on the post, Why Not Give It Away?, on the site Behind the Closed Door 1 month ago

Great connections Tara! As a teacher, I try to develop a classroom that exemplifies these two characteristics. I try to find something to love about each of my students and as the year progresses I truly feel […]
Karen Robb wrote a new post, Privacy Versus Anonymity, on the site Mind the Gap 1 month, 1 week ago

When I was a kid there was a show on TV called “What’s New Mr. Magoo?“. Mr. Magoo was a quirky old man who unknowingly got into all kinds of predicaments because he was very near-sighted. He sort of walked […]

Thanks so much for your kind words. The concept of digital citizenship is one our school is exploring as we gear up for a 1:1 iPad program next fall. Thank you for including the link to that document. I look […]

While the provenance of this well known explorer’s maxim is disputed, the message can be quite clearly interpreted. It entreats you to respect nature and in turn you and future generations will be rewarded with […]
Karen Robb commented on the post, Digital Footprints, on the site Janette's Blog 1 month, 3 weeks ago

Parents of very young children often ‘baby-proof’ their houses to keep kids from getting into stuff they shouldn’t and sometimes they forget to gradually un-baby-proof the same space to teach their children how to […]
Karen Robb wrote a new post, Course 1 Final Project – Sharing the Planet Summative Grade Three, on the site Mind the Gap 2 months ago

The enduring understanding that I have gained through this first course was the importance of using technology authentically with my students. Technology should be used because it is the best way of sharing […]
Karen Robb commented on the post, It worked!!, on the site Learning in Progress 2 months ago

I think one reason why teachers are reluctant to let kids mess around is because, let’s face it, it get messy! Kids are either really quiet because they are so involved and engaged or they are super loud because […]
Karen Robb wrote a new post, Old-Fashioned Pen Pals and New Holes in the Wall, on the site Mind the Gap 2 months, 1 week ago

After a little hiatus, I am back in the blogging business. Life gets in the way of the best laid plans and in this case it was in a pleasant way. Recently, two close family members travelled, here, to the Middle […]

Does anyone know if there is a way that we can be notified if someone comments on a comment we have left on someone else’s blog. For example, if I have commented on someone’s blog and a third person comments to […]

Hi Heather: I’m glad I came back to follow up on these comments. Thanks for suggesting kidblog.org. I took a look at your class posts and now I am more excited than ever to start a project with my students. I […]
Karen Robb wrote a new post, Following Directions or Going Insane?, on the site Mind the Gap 2 months, 1 week ago

In my house I am the one who assembles things, not because I am naturally more adept at it than my husband but rather, because I have the patience to persist through all the steps. I actually enjoy reading the […]

Wow! I never even considered any of these issues when thinking of using tech with my class. Our school is going 1:1 next fall with iPads and clearly there will be hurdles to jump along the way. I can see the […]
