I took a study day today. I wasn't going to because I have too much going on in the classroom. But today was cross country, and it is cold, and I figured I may as well stay at home (where it is cold also) and create a Blipp!
Yvette discovered an amazing app called Blippar, and when she showed me her awesome Blipp and what could be done with it I just had to try it. I had some issues because I signed up for the wrong account to start with. If you get this for the classroom, make sure you get Blippar for education. Anyway, as of Wednesday, I have been able to use it without any hiccups so I am a very happy person.
My first Blipp wouldn't work, I created one about kinetic art, useful for this term and the future. But last night I kept thinking about a topic and I didn't want to do the same one, and then I thought about our Zero Waste school, and I decided that would be a good topic with lots of opportunities to make links and include information etc. I was a good, honest person and only used images that were labeled for reuse, and I hope all of my information is correct. So here is my day's work. I will probably edit it some more in the future but I was eager to complete it and now it is almost 7pm and I'm still sitting on my backside in front of the computer!

Thanks again, Yvette! I love this!
Blipper looks interesting. Can you tell me more about it and how it is used in your classroom. Ronda
