    This is a good place for parents to look for information when searching for quality child care. You can access a child care options calculator which will help families examine their financial situation both with and without child care. Families can get an idea of their monthly budget and how child care will impact that budget. Find Alex the Bear on this website, who will help your child with the transition to child care. This website also explains what Child Care Resource and Referral can do for you and will help with finding a local CCR&R. This website is also a great resource for anyone interested in becoming a child care provider. I would use this website in my research for a parent or provider.

    I would use this site to receive up-to-date early childhood news and information from around the nation and also for research. You can sign up to receive an e-newsletter with the latest news affecting child care and early childhood development. There is also great information for military families who need help in finding child care.

About Common Craft - Who We Are (And What We Do) - Common Craft - Our Product is Explan... - 5 views

      These have uses as we think about the 21st Century learners. Right away it makes me think of financial literacy.

    This site has quick videos (around three minutes or less) that explain things in very simple terms. They use paper cut outs as they explain about technology, money, etc. I know that Barb has used these in our class. I didn't realize there were so many. When I looked at some of them, I thought about the 21st Century learner and how teachers might use these videos with students to help them learn about finances. They can be used personally for free or professionally for a fee. Teachers would have to be careful not to infringe on copyright issues, but this would be a nice way to introduce many concepts to students.

    I love the Common Craft products, too! Every time I watch one of the videos, I'm amazed at the clarity of the explanation! They are able to take very complex tools, and make them seem simple. I think one of the best things about this is that they provide a "conceptual" look at the tool, rather than simply a "how to use it" video. For me, I often find myself experimenting with how to use a tool, before I really even understand conceptually what the tool is and what it can do! (A clear example of the many times when I don't know what I don't know!) This Common Craft site is one that I will bookmark, and return to often.

  • Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus Use these techniques to locate authors: If looking on the page doesn't reveal an author's name, look on the Web site. Try truncating the url to see if there are clues about authorship or links to an author on other pages--remove the end of the address back to a significant break ( / ) or the root of the site. If the site provides links to 'about us' or 'contact us,' check there for author information. If the site provides a search engine, enter the name of the article and see if information about the author is retrieved. This may require careful reading. Search a different site. Enter information about the article in search engines like Google and see if any information about the author is retrieved. This may require careful reading.
