List of my current favourite UDL Links I just compiled while learning Symbaloo.

Has excellent resources for younger and older students. Includes downloadable .pdfs colouring books on Geologists and Mining, great list of links. The items in the interactive geologist backpack game are a little too small.

Outstanding interactive online book describes many aspects of the forest and plants and animals that live there. Additional forest facts can be accessed that explore the topics even further. The list of resources is also excellent. Suitable for upper intermediate.

Helpful list of teaching/learning strategies from government website

Free app from CanAssist lets you add photos, video, and voice to create reminders and/or schedules, lists.

This is a great reading app. It can import text in many formats ( great with Dropbox) and even read PPT and Keynote presentations. You can change the size of text. Hold on a word to see its definition (doesn't read the definition). Hold on a word then select text to create highlights, bookmarks, and notes. These appear in a separate list which, when accessed, takes you back to the original spot in the text and begins reading from that point. Great voices. This is one of the better reading apps I've found...just wish the definitions would read and the highlighted text would actually highlight instead of ending up in a different location. $9.99

Sqworl is a free app that allows you to create a public page on the web that contains thumbnails of several webpages. You can then share the url. This would be useful for making a custom homepage, lists of workshop resources, or safe sites for kids to browse when doing research. It's very easy to set up...you just name a group and then paste in the url's and a short title or description of the links you want. Sqworl creates the thumbnail pics which you can drag around to reorder.

Great activity in which students find a simple machine, select it's function from a humorous list and tell what kind of machine it is.
