Hey.
One of my favorite shows is Duck Dynasty. I found a YouTube video about being low-tech from this TV show. Phil Robertson is the star. He discusses video games and kids in school being too dependent on technology. Obviously, this is a funny view on the topic, but the real question is serious. Kids do need to play outside more, and just because technology is growing that doesn't mean that kids need to forget how to use their imagination and play.
I really enjoy Youtube. I have know about it for a while, but have never taken much time to explore it. I like that there are categories to choose from so as to contain your search a bit. It can be a bit overwhelming to see how many videos are out there. I also like that you can flag something inappropriate. Not that I am a prude, but some things should not be available for kids to see on Youtube.
I really would like to use this in my future classroom. Here is an example. I could show this as an intro to the Great Depression.
Hey.
Just for fun. Hey.
Twenty down and three to go!
