You're welcome gabymadera & carmen2014. I'm glad you found it helpful. If you make and upload your book trailers please share them. :)

Thanks for sharing. It's new for me and looks very interesting.

A worldwide network of coding clubs for children aged 9-11. I use ready to go Scratch projects from this site to help run my coding club, however it is also great as classroom support or enrichment.

my kids love making the robots dance on the robot boogie challenge! I would have suggested this myself. It's interesting to watch them switch from the sliders to inputting numbers, adjusting and checking the results.

Interesting web for kids to improve thir vocabulary. Sorry because the web is in Spanish.

Interesting. In some schools here they are trying to implement the use of ipads, I think it is a very useful article to approach the issue.

My school is contemplating providing our Kindergarten with a classroom set of iPads, and I will certainly forward this article to our teachers as they begin to introduce iPad use into their curriculum.

ThingLink lets users add interactive links to any photo and turn them into fun web experiences that drive engagement.

Very interesting, I will use it with my students!!

I had a colleague recommend this to me the other day! I will use it in my Science class to introduce animals as living things (3rd grade).

As a teacher we must be able to create fun and creative learning. One of the things that can be done is by using technology. We can utilize the sophistication of technology as a medium in delivering material in learning. One of them is making online practice questions using quizizz https://quizizz.com/login. How to use it is quite easy, you only need to create an account and you can already create practice questions. I think making practice questions fun with quizizz can help increase the motivation and enthusiasm of elementary school students. So we as teachers don't get tired of always creating interesting things. Thank you!

Teach the world. Use mysimpleshow in the classroom with your students or contribute to open educational resources. Introduce, summarize, and explain topics worth sharing.

I'm going to try this. Usually, for online learning I will make my own presentation and then do a screen recording on the Mac which records your voice at the same time. A more fun, interactive presentation may help the students pay closer attention.

Thanks for sharing. I've always thought that kind of video is very visually appealing for students. I'll definitely explore MySimpleShow! It could be used to explain difficult topics in a simple way.

Edmodo is an easy way to get your students connected so they can safely collaborate, get and stay organized, and access assignments, grades, and school messages.

A great and safe tool to use with students, in my case due to the Quarantine situation, we had to move on to E-learning so quick with 7 - 8 years old students, the platform is ideally for older students but Edmodo helped a lot to keep a direct communication with students/parents in a safe online environment.

It is a great tool to bring the learner, teacher and parent all three community and make the learning happen in a wholesome way. Learners being able to work on feedforwards from the teachers and peer feedback can be implied here.
