    This is an INCREDIBLE website that NSharoff (http://twitter.com/nsharoff) from New York has shared with me! It lets you as a parent or teacher create spelling lists, then the kids can have the program "teach" them the words. Then, they can play games like hangmouse and a lot of others to learn the words. I am using this with my son and was so happy when nsharoff forwarded it, I could have just flipped!

Scoop.it Passes Diigo as EdReach's #3 Referrer | EdReach - 10 views

  • But the past couple of weeks there’s been a rolling stone gathering lots of moss- and that stone is Scoop.it.
  • Well, I haven’t seen much happen with Scoop.it and educators for the past few months, but then something big happened: Scoop.it launched Scoop.it for Education.
  • I know many educators are fond of Paper.li, another link/newspaper tool, but I’ve never found  that paper-like experience to be of much value, because it’s so… bland.
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • Paper.li creates these “news” papers based on the people you follow on Twitter, not on your Tweets. Scoop.it creates their paper based on your Scoop.it bookmarks, so it is somewhat more of an authentic experience.
