      ABC's great for kindergarten independent reading skills

    This site has great interactivity and good response mechanisms. I could see kids using this to practice their pronunciation and reading skills. The language allows clicking on individual words, where they then sound out loud. Check out the Earth Day section - you can drag recyclables to the bins and hear the words. Great! Lots of color, sound, kids voices, and animation make this site fun

    agree! I use this frequently w/ K & 1, and especially my ESL students because of the amount of vocabulary it includes!

    This website is a great internet tool for emerging readers and struggling readers. Students are able to listen and view tutorials to learn letter sounds, how to use letters in words and how to build sentences. This phonics tool is helpful to students that struggle with traditional instruction but are able to engage with web 2.0 tools to help further their understanding. This website also has additional tutorials and interactive games for holidays, seasons, and more advanced readers.

    Starfall is designed for Pre-K-2nd grade students. The goal of this site is to help kids read better by using phonics.This site is on my least favorite list because this site needs to add more interactive elements to it. Students are given the option to click on the words but I feel that having interactive games keeps the child interested

    I think this website does provide a lot of information about various topics, however, it does not provide any interactive activities or games.  It all involves reading information from different webpages.  Students often get bored from reading information online and it is important that there are interactive components in educational websites.

    This site is very well organized, and has lots of examples in many subjects. Uh-ho - you gotta sign up. It's worth it though. The lessons are obviously done by experts.

    This site helps enhance and develop learning skills in many content areas. BrainpopJr is for K-8 and the regular site (www.brainpop.com) is for students in grades 4-8. I enjoy this site because it allows students to go to specific subjects and learn about them in a fun and interactive way.

    Lots of fun animation. I stayed very entertained on this Web site. I love that the Dr. Seuse characters are tied in. What great books! The sounds make it fun too... though... I do wonder how a student who's deaf or blind might interact with this site.

      These educational games explore important topics in history and provide interactive and fun ways for students to learn about history and other content.

    This website provides games and activities where students can learn more about Science & Nature, History & Culture, People, Places, etc.  Students can also take quizzes where they answer questions and then are given feedback on what they answer.  It is organized very well where descriptions of each game or activity is provided.

    This website has lots of drill and practice work. The exercises are colorful and animated. This keeps the attention of students. There is a lot of variety in types of tasks, including science, math, and language. The difficulty of each exercise grows with the number of correct answers. Immediate feedback is provided on everything.

    Fun brain has some great games for students to learn different things, but some of the games are not very educational.
  • Paul Fullmore on 20 Jan 11
     
    I can honestly say that I enjoy this site. Out of 10, this site will be raked at six. K-8 students are the intended audience for this site. They do have many interactive games, but the attention of the students sometimes worry about "playing" and do not focus on learning.
  • Anna Hipps on 23 Jan 11
     
    This is also one of my least favorite websites because once again it has a lot of games that students like to play but not a lot of learning is done
  • Morgan Wigal on 24 Jan 11
     
    I like this website because it is not only for kids but also for teachers. It has math and reading games, as well as other types of games and information. I think this would be a good site for young students to use in centers in a class or for extension activities.

      Provides interactive exercises where students can explore the moon, outer space, and other fun activities.  Also, there are many printable activities, like the identifying animals sheet at the bottom of this page.

    This website provides a lot of great resources for teachers to use in the classroom.  It provides lesson planning ideas which include interactive activities and games to use in the classroom.  Also, professional development activities are provided on topics such as classroom management.  Additionally, there are many technology integration ideas provided.  There are also newsletters, blogs, and other resources on this site.

    I was not a fan of this website because when I first clicked on it a pop up came up. Also, I feel like there are a ton of links and little words all over the website. It seems overwhelming. I did not like navigating this page, therefore it is one of my least favorites.

    These activities range from online applets, interactivities, and lesson plans. Everything on this website is free! You can use these through a whole class discussion or give the students the website and have them explore themselves using an applet. The activities can be easily searched through grade level or through the standards.
