My online friend, Bonnie Kaplan has commenced a photofriday. I met Bonnie through Kevin’s regular day in a sentence“. As I missed the inaugural Friday, I am determined to share a photo today.
My day in a sentence for this week is:-
It was announced at morning briefing that our principal was leaving for USA, but I reported that I would be there before her, taking my kids with me, as we were using skype to participate in an amazing videoconference for a “show and tell finale” with the New England students we had connected with through blogging.
My photo follows the same theme and shows one of my students holding up a jar of vegemite to show the students of Collaboration Nation, in New England, USA. We are in Australia, but with the help of skype, a web cam, a desktop microphone and an interactive whiteboard, we were able to videoconference with each other. They chanted Hannah along until she tasted the vegemite in front of the camera.

Day in a Sentence is now technicolour

Enjoy all the colours of the rainbow as day in a sentence goes technicolour. Thank you Kevin for allowing me to host it this week and for spelling colour as it is and not color. Goes to show true tolerance and global collaboration and next time I shall use color for you!!!!
Some of the sentences will make you:-
- laugh
- cry
- stand back in amazement
- be uplifted
but best of all, you will enjoy reading all of them.
Dont forget to check out Kevin, our usual host’s post as well.
Kevin has kindly allowed me to use his powerpoint version of the technocolour day in a sentence. So, here it is….

Day in a sentence goes technocolour
May 20, 2008 · 31 Comments
Cheers! Australia is proud to host ’your day in a sentence’ this week. So come on all, and Aussies in particular, tell the world about your week! I am grabbing Kevin’s catch line of ‘day in a sentence in technocolour”!! (Wish other countries could spell correctly!!!)
Here is the idea:
Boil down your week or a day into a sentence, mentioning a colour that best describes your day or week within that sentence.
Post as a comment here. The comments will all be threaded together on Sunday here and on Kevin, our host’s site at http://dogtrax.edublogs.org
eg Yellow describes my day today as I strived to make the theory interesting for my yr 12 students, applying the theory of working in virtual teams by live blogging with them – 2 hours just flew past!!

Be part of this virtual community that connects at least once a week ‘in a sentence’. Look forward to your comments.
