Tech Tip: Google Timer

For a tech tip this week I decided to try and set up a google timer. A lot of time I get so engrossed in studying that I forget to take a break, which has been proven to help retain more information. Short breaks are good while studying as it gives you a chance to stretch your legs, get a snack or something to drink or even check your social media or messages you missed while studying. If I play on being in the library for a long time I will set up a tomato timer on my phone. But sometimes that gets me distracted as I am then always checking my phone waiting for the break. The google timer is nice because you can play it right on your computer so you are never distracted by your phone while studying.

Reading Notes, English Fairy Tales, Part A

This week is the beginning of the British/Celtic unit! I used the random story picker and it chose English Fairy Tales. The first story I read was "Tom Tit Tot." This story had the exact same plot as Rumplestiltskin by the Grimm Brothers. I also read "The Three Little Pigs." I think that if I were to chose a story from this first part to rewrite,I would choose this one! It was my favorite story to hear as a little kid. As this story is so well known, I think that it would be cool to write it in a rhyming poem!

Tech Tip: Twitter Follow

I already had a twitter but for this assignment I chose to follow some twitter accounts run by the University of Oklahoma. The first one I followed was the University of Oklahoma Class of 2018 account. I followed this one because this is my class, and they announce a lot of cool events, like free food on campus and also they keep you updated with emergency situations on campus. The second account I followed was the University of Oklahoma Football account. This is because I love football, but I don't always have time to sit down and watch a four hour game and this account posts play-by-play updates on the games.
