Room 132: Archived
I’m no longer a teacher in Room 132. I’ve moved on to be a teacher on the internet at Make: Magazine.
Update: Now I’m a videographer new media guy at Etsy!
I made a bunch of videos for this blog to keep parents up to date on what I was teaching and I’m proud of them. I’m also really proud of all the students that put time and energy and work into this blog. This is an archive of a lot of the projects that they did in my class during the 2005-2006 schoolyear.
Here are some of my favorite video posts:
In The Future
Too much sugar
Finger Puppets
Room 132 Finishes Things Up
Snow, Rewrites, and the Pixel Project
The Running Man
Animation Flip Books
Blogging for Teachers
If you have any favorite posts that I missed, drop me a note and I’ll add to the list.

Trick this out a bit by sending it out via Google Groups or…• Jot down a few notes about classroom activities and add a few pictures in a blog or a wiki.• Schedule volunteer activities for parents using Google Calendar.• Get fancy and make a brief video about classroom happenings just like Bre Pettis did in Room 132. more from Infinite thinking machine and resolutions post Sunday, January 14, 2007 4:59 PM miketemple123 [...]

So does this mean that you’re officially a web celeb who can pay rent without a regular 9-5 gig? Most impressive! But I bet your students will sure miss you!
