It's kind of like Skype but it's more for educational use. I was thinking about using this tool in my classroom and perhaps videoconferencing with my sister and mom who are also elementary music teachers. Maybe I could set it up so that we co-teach a lesson on music together, or maybe sing a duet with the other classroom of music students using the videoconferencing. It'd be fun for the kids to see other kids in music that are all the way in the southwest corner of the United States, since my sister teaches in Arizona. This would be something I'd definitely think about using.

At this site, the kids will be able to practice skills, enrich their skills, and review. Once you enter the website, there are various "treetures" that you can click on. If you click on Mama Greenleaf, she will go through all of the leaves with you. When the student put's their mouse over the solid leaves, they change to real life pictures. The kids can learn facts about the leaves here. The site helps students review the three types of leaves in which they are learning about (simple, compound, and conifer). There is even a quiz that they can take. I'm using this website because it lets the students to learn/review at their own pace and not feel pressured. The parent's could also assist the students to discover the other areas of interests on this site such as twigs, branches, forests, planting trees, etc.

This website has games for kids to play and practice what they know. There are different categories so while on this one site a child would be able to practice skills in science, math, English, language, health, and computer skills. In each of these categories there are many different games that cover different areas. In the math category for example there are games about money, adding/subtracting, and place value. There are plenty more but those are just a few. In the science category there are games about animals, body and space. The games are in order of course level. This site is generally for younger children. It lets them practice skills while playing a fun game. They are very simple games and a young child would catch on very easily.

This website has many resources and videos for quick and easy to understand segments related to a wide variety of science topics. I believe that clips could be edited and shown in the classroom for certain topics that I believe are better explained in a video segment. They have a section called "tips for teachers" that gives useful resources. If we have the fortunate ability to have computers in the classroom this site would provide many activities for kids to enjoy in groups or individually. I believe it would be fun for the students which would encourage learning.

This website would be very helpful because they could also look up what other students had to say about certain subjects.

This website would work in a third grade classroom perfect. I think that it would work perfect because it is very easily to access. It is also very easy to use because all the lessons are setup for you and ready to use. The materials that are in this website are perfect for this age group. Some of the categories are: Art, Famous Explorers, Library skills, and math mathematics I would work them into my lesson by asking the kids to take turns reading what's on the overhead and then we would stop to talk about what we learned. We would also have quizzes after our PowerPoint presentation on what we talked about.

Art can be inspired from anything, sometimes having art, a story, and music work together is another form of art. The above mentioned website contains games for children in art classes that have good examples for the combination of the formerly mentioned subjects. Some of the games have animation that flows with the background music with it. This shows how art can be used to follow or show music in a visual form. This way students can better understand the relations between the art and music.

Fact Monster has a lot of really cool links, and one of them is the United States. On there you can find out tons of facts on each state. Another neat thing on factmonster.com is that it will ask you if you are a boy or girl, and then what grade you are in. Once it ask you, a random fact will pop up for the internet surfer to read.

it allows my students to play games and be entertained while using their math skills

This website is fun and educational! It offers games for reading, math, spelling, science, etc. It is designed for young children; ages 3-9. It also advertises and gives suggestions on reading books. The games had very cute names such as; MathCar Racing, Bunny Count, Grammar Gorillas, Fact Monster. This would be a great tool for parents to help their children with areas they are struggling with or to just promote learning at home. I would use it as an award in my classroom for good behavior because kids will think they are playing games while actually learning. I could incorporate it into my 100th day celebration math lesson also by playing one of the games that involves counting up to 100.
