Parent Resources to share...

Book Reviews brings together in one place the best children's and young adults' book reviews published in several countries. Thank you to all the magazines and websites for sharing with us their great content!

Good videos how to get started on Diigo

I've compiled several "The Best…" lists that share sites where you can learn about the geography, data, languages, and holidays of different countries around the world. Those resources are important, but I think it's like learning the words, but not the music, of a song. So I thought I'd develop a separate list just focused on helping students learn about the cultures of different countries, and would love to hear additional suggestions.

Really love these steps to creating book trailers. Excellent materials shared!

Digital Citizenship infographics, important to share.

Created by TeachingBooks.net as part of the Caldecott Medal 75th Anniversary celebration, and debuted at the 2013 Newbery/Caldecott/Wilder banquet (June 2013), enjoy personal peaks into the studios of 3 Medalists (David Wiesner, Leo & Diane Dillons, and Kevin Henkes), and then see beautiful first-edition covers of all 76 Caldecott Medal-winning books (generously scanned by KT Horning and the Children's Cooperative Book Center). Under this montage of book covers are audio tracks of 25 of the recipients sharing brief insights into their creative process. Have fun identifying these Caldecott Medal-winning illustrators.

Fantastic video on Information Overload-- good for sharing with students and staff...

Recite allows you to create and share posters online.

I have found the following websites useful in my secondary school English classroom as they provide models of diverse ways of sharing personal stories, as well as explicit teaching resources on traditional and modern forms of storytelling.

Just as a reminder, most of the materials I share in this page are about Bloom's revised taxonomy and not the first traditional version. Below is another graphic am adding to this section which I came across in my Twitter feeds today.

Mash up your social media and stuff from the Web. Share fun mash ups with friends and family through Twitter, Facebook and Google+. Channel professional mash ups through blogs and networks like LinkedIn, and channel your learning through the new Yahki education channel.

Nice unit idea: We are an International Baccalaureate school and this unit is our "Sharing the Planet" unit. It is called Solve It and is all about conflict and resolution.

No talking, just signing the letters that formed the words you wanted to share with your friend. If Sign Language worked for his class, maybe it would work in mine.
