Treeture Treasure - 0 views

  •  
    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.

Simplified Web Interface for Teachers - 0 views

  •  
    The K-12 Horizon Report suggested SWIFT as a site to aid teachers in communication via the web with their students and parents. SWIFT stands for Simplified Web Interface for Teachers. For schools that do not have their websites set up for teachers to have their individual pages, this is a great solution. Teachers are able to design a site without needing to know HTML or software programs and are able to post announcements, assign homework, start discussions and give practice quizzes. SWIFT can be integrated with an existing site and created with the same color and design scheme to fit in with a present district site. Having created websites before, I think options like this are fabulous for creating a decent-looking and usable site.

AlgebraLAB: Making Math and Science Connections - 0 views

    I feel like this would be very good to use as a resource in my classroom. As a middle school math teacher, I will be using a lot of algebra in my class. This would be a very helpful site to use as practice or review. Rather than having students bring their books home to complete their homework, they could just log into the site and complete the problems.

    This website is directed towards educators to use as a tool in the carrying out of a lesson plan. When using the exact link itself, the website it brings me to a page that seems very simple and basic, but when looking at the company that created it, it is very complex and thorough.

    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.

Smarthistory: a multimedia web-book about art and art history - 0 views

  •  
    The site has a timeline of art history, information on different artists, and different art styles. In my classroom, I could take the whole class to computer lab and teach them about different styles of art in art history. I could then have them each try to duplicate one of the styles. They could also look at some of the famous artwork and artist as an inspiration.

    This is a website where children can review what nouns are. There is also a place to go for learning Proper nouns, concrete and abstract nouns, but I would only use this site as a way for students to review and have fun.

Kidinfo.com - Your Guide to Educational Powerpoints for Learning - 0 views

  •  
    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.

    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.
