Building and Refining your PLN

                This is a blog I added to my list because I follow and like their ideas on twitter. I am not sure that it counts so I did four but I figured if I like their twitter post I’ll probably enjoy their blog too.

                This blog gives technology ideas that may be useful within physical education. Obviously this is something that caught my interest.

                This blog gives a lot of ideas on getting kids especially girls involved in physical education. It also gives advice for fellow PE teachers.

                I selected this blog as I found a link to it on the Guardian website. It was under the heading of physical education blogs I should read. The blog gives lots of ideas on physical education.

Gives technology ideas for PE teachers

I feel have used the twitter tools a lot this semester. I usually seem to see ideas for class or games pop up on my timeline at least 3 or 4 times a week. The twitter ideas are not something that I have tried yet but they are something that I would like to begin to use in my classes. I think the Pinterest and Youtube things that I have added have been less useful. I do not use Pinterest or Youtube that often so that may be why I have not gotten much out of the sites. Overall I would say that the PLN things I have added have already been beneficial to me as it has gotten me interested in adding new games to my current classes.
