Remember Vokis? I just rediscovered this avatar-creating site and I have embedded one into my blog and another into my book wiki to introduce the sites to visitors. I recorded my own voice for the voki on my blog. Check it out...These are WAY too much fun!

Emily Taylor said...: I really like to use vokis with my students. They can type a sentence or paragraph and have their voki present it. We are used them for poetry and a Who am I? activity. Did you do this at home or from the district? Last time I tried in the district it was blocked.; September 6, 2009 at 9:40 AM
Elizabeth Hopkins said...: Good point, Emily. I haven't tried it from the district. Perhaps we can submit it to get it unblocked. I'd like to use it with my kids.; September 7, 2009 at 4:09 PM

I have requested the voki.com site to be unblocked in the District, I will keep you posted.
