Motivational Poster Challenge
Everything with the instructions was pretty much explanatory, so I didn't have a problem at that area. The only problem I had was my fault when I clicked the BACK button by mistake, and I had to start over again.
This is a great tool for students to use for making a motivational poster. It gives the opportunity to use some imagination because there are so many different ways of portraying a motivational poster, and it can be customized to one's liking.
Only2Clicks Challenge
Only2Clicks is a tool that allows you to view all of your bookmarked pages from one site. This is a fast and efficient way for internet users to have an overview of their favorite websites on one page. It is a lot like Google Chrome; instead, you can personalize it and control what you want on the page and edit it to suit your style.

ToonDoo Challenge "No Cell Phones!"
CORRECTION ON THE LITTLE GIRL'S PHONE CONVERSATION: It's supposed to say, "Mom, I'm sorry. I won't go over my minutes again! Yes, I told him that you are coming down the hallway now."
5th Grade Math
One way I would use ToonDoo is, of course, get my message across to the students about classroom rules. Another way is to incorporate it into PowerPoint presentations to make them more interesting for the students. I would also try to incorporate them into a bi-weekly newsletter that I would send to the parents about what is going on and upcoming events in the classroom. Lastly, I would give the students the opportunity to create their own ToonDoo on an area of math that they found to be the most interesting or challenging.
My Voki
This is a great and fun way to introduce yourself to your students and parents. Most people are camera shy or don't like the sound of their voice, so I think this is a great alternative. I may use Voki for any, and probably, every assignment that I happen to post online. Using the voice already on there, I think it would save me a lot of time editing for posting instructions for assignments.
