Reader.Google

I spent the last hour exploring Google Reader. At first, I thought I would just add news feeds. After adding five feeds from the bundles that were already created, I decided to browse and search other areas. I was impresses to find several feeds for cheerleading coaches. They contained great tips and ideas including general coaching assistance through pep rally ideas. I then searched for feeds designed for wives of firefighters and found a number of infomative sites. Finally, I ventured into second grade teaching ideas. The first feed to show up was for my favorite website, Santa Bonita School in CA. I have this as one fo my favorites on my school computer.
Next I subscribed to ReadWriteThink. This is another site I am familiar with. However, the feed automatically gives you current and up to date ideas for lessons.
I was not expecting to have so much fun searching for feeds. I thought it would be a struggle to find a total of five or at least 3 that correlate to elementary school. I am pleased to say that I found so many useful feeds.
