==media type="custom" key="5973087" is another cool tool we will be using to have students create interesting ways of completing some of their assignments! == ==Below is an example of a student reflection on a poem by Robert Frost. The student's assignment was to read the Robert Frost poem, "The Road Not Taken", and to create an image representing the poem. Finally, they were to reflect upon the meaning of the poem and record their interpretation using [|Blabberize], which is an online tool that helps add some creativity to a project by making an object look like it is talking. Here is a great example and this student's interpretation. ==

by [|Robert Frost]
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy ans wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I - I took the one less traveled by And that has made all the difference.
