How to Sign up for a Free Animoto Account: Part 2 of 4

Greetings,

I hope you had a great weekend.  Today I am continuing my blog on Animoto on how to sign up for a free account.  To sign up for a free account simply go to http://www.animoto.com/  When you get to the web site you will see the following down below.  Follow the instructions in the red box.

Once you click on the blue Sign Up button it will take you to the following page below.

Simply choose the Free one on the far left hand side.  It is called the lite.  Once you click on the Try Now button it will take you to the following page below and you will need to fill out the information to register for a free account.

Once you complete the information, click on the blue Sign Up button and you will be able to log into Animoto.  You will also get a welcome email from Animoto giving your additional instructions on how to use the program.  You may want to review the terms of service and the privacy policy, but this is standard procedure.

Next week I will be discussing Part 3: How to Create a Video.  I hope you have a great week.  I will see you next week.  Take care.

Free Resources You Can Download and Use in Your Classroom!

Greetings Colleagues,

Today I am blogging about a Great web site where you can find free, and valuable resources that other teachers have created and posted. You can sign up and join the community for free. When you sign up, you can search for all types of Microsoft Word, Excel, and Power Point documents, as well as pdf's. You will find many forms on classroom management, behavioral reward systems and behavioral contracts. I personally have searched the site for many useful documents that I have shared with other teachers. Just click on the picture to the left of this post to get started. Here is a list of 10 additional resources you will find on the site:

1. Beginning Teacher & Professional Development
2. Teaching Practices
3. Classroom Management
4. Managing Student Centers
5. Homework Ideas
6. Writing Ideas
7. Seasonal and Holiday Ideas
8. Science, Social Studies, Math, Reading, Language Arts Ideas
9. Technology Ideas
10. Visual and Performing Arts Ideas

Hope you enjoy the site. This is probably one of the most comprehensive collections of helpful documents I have found. When you get a chance, sign up for a free account and search for many ideas that you can use in your classroom. Hope this helps. Next week I will be blogging about podcasting and vodcasting. See you next week.
