This is a service that allows the user to keep track of the web pages they have visited, and keeps them in a usable order. The service is free. I can see this being beneficial in the classroom because the majority of student research is conducted with online tools. This service allows you to keep track of where your research has taken you, even if you don't bookmark every relevant page. It also will provide a safety net for novice researchers, who won't have to spend another hour looking back to see where they found a specific example or piece of information.

The site uses an electronic timeline that serves as backbone for the entire coursework throughout the year. Students post all work to the site. This includes individual and collective research work, a writing component, factual assessments, and an emphasis on presentation, collaboration and discussion. The site places an emphasis on active learning that they hope will strengthen skill development (technology, research, historiography, communication). The end of year the students produce a substantial final project.

website is a "Treasure Hunt of Penguin Facts." The Treasure Hunt consists of about 12 questions that require the student to research the penguin information on the Sea World website, so that they can find the correct answers for the Treasure Hunt. If the student scores well enough on the Treasure Hunt questions, they might be inducted into the "Explorer's Hall of Fame." The Treasure Hunt is just a fun way to get the students motivated to learn and read through the information about penguins. The combination of these two websites gives students the opportunity to learn about penguins in an exciting hunt for penguin facts.

Siftables are small, block-like smart objects that include a display and the ability to sense their own location and orientation and the proximity of other Siftables. They are sort of like high tech versions of the building blocks with letters and numbers we used as children. The can play music, form words, and other exciting functions. IF I had these in my classroom I would definitely use them in math. On the website it shows a video of siftables with numbers on them and you can arrange say 5 + 3 = each on a different siftable. On the last siftable it will produce the answer when you line them up. This way children get an instant answer. You could also use it with spelling which can also be seen on the video on the website.

website focused on classical composers and repertoire. This website will be a good learning tool for my learning project because it has small biographies on each of the composers I have chosen to put on my list. It will give the students information and it will help them get started on the project. There are also other helpful parts of this website, like being able to look at literature and articles and links to other articles and websites. Students can learn more about pieces they play other than just who wrote them and how they sound.

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.
