    While much of this site is just plain silly, or even inappropriate, this is still a fun site.  The art section is great and can get kids looking at famous paintings and talking about them - a good resource for language teachers.

    This website is a great resource for whiteboard activities for Language Arts. I would use this in my classroom if I had a Promethean board or any other type of interactive whiteboard in order to engage my students in a new way.

    Thank you for sharing this resource. I am getting a Mimio in our classroom next month and this will really help me find some things that could work for us. Great find! Thanks.

    I love the BlamSpot, he has such a great way of presenting information, awesome sense of humor.

    It's like a comic just for teachers! It's nice to see that Bill Lammers is from Cedar Rapids. His ideas are presented in logical and originals ways. The September 14 post on creativity is particularly refreshing. This seems like the kind of blog I could get used to checking in on every once in a while. Thanks for sharing!

    This is a great tool to use in order to show your students how to get started on their own blogs.  I would use this with older students in order to get them started on sharing different ideas that they might have with each other.

    This website is a marketplace for educators. It is a resource to get materials of various kinds to be used in the classroom. This can range from classroom management, labels, lesson plans, paperwork used in the classroom, forms, etc. Some items are free and some must be bought. These materials can be printed and used or be used as framework for a teacher who is looking to create their own materials but doesn't know where to begin and can use these as a template.

    I have been to this site and there are some great things on here, but I have a little bit of a problem with teachers selling their lessons. If this is what you want to do then create something that can be sold commercially. I am not really sure why this strikes me as wrong but it just doesn't sit right somehow. I would gladly share my ideas with others, but if I want to make money off my ideas I would go to the work to present it in a manner that those purchasing would have some assurance that what they are purchasing has some educational value, meets goals and standards and has been tested and refined. Personal opinion, like I said at the beginning there is great free stuff on here too, check it out and see what there is to offer.

    This website creates word clouds and is often used to begin concept mapping or brainstorming. Students can list words that connect with each other and create a visual. Word clouds can be altered by size of the words, color, and shape.

    I've always liked this site, but often forget about it. I think kids enjoy brainstorming and creating these. I think for World Languages it has great potential as kids often just need fun ways to practice and recall words! These are also fun to save and post on class blogs, wikis, etc.

    This is a great site for creating truly beautiful word clouds. It has some amazing implications for classroom use with both a traditional word cloud and some crazy uses I have seen on blogs and at conferences. It is specifically helpful in the classroom to help students see commonalities with text. I really believe that this resource is mostly for student use. They can create their own word clouds, screen shot them, and save them for projects in the future. It provides a simple, but elegant, workflow and space for students to create. The FAQ section also provides some nice work arounds and ideas as well. There are a few similar sites out there that have cropped up, but this one is really the granddaddy of them all and probably the best one too. When was the last time you made a word cloud?

    I really love this cite. It's a great way to create a project, poem, presentation, etc. in a unique way. This is a great resource for both students and teachers. Students can use it as an alternate way to complete an assignment and teachers as an alternate way to present instruction. I myself use it often for my words wall words of the week. Thanks for sharing Kelsey.

    Thank you Kelsey for posting this, I've seen these word clouds on websites and other places but didn't know how to make them. Now I don't have to look any further. I think this resource will be something that I could use in my classroom. It may be a tool used so students can see what words they use most in their writing or for a poetry unit. It is definitely something that I can see myself using for graphic works, either on a blog, yearbook page, or poster. This is something that I feel both students and teachers can use, but mostly students. I know there are similar sites out there, but not sure what they are.

    I love this cite to do word wall words and other things. I used it a great deal last year but had forgotten about it. It is not only a good resource for the teacher but the kids love it to. Thanks for refreshing my memory on this site.

    This blog lists top documentary films for teachers or students to watch. Teachers can use these documentaries as a means of providing more information to students. The documentaries may not be suitable for all ages.
  • kirstinthompson on 13 Nov 12
     
    This site could have great potential, especially for high school science and social studies classes, based on the topics of the movies listed. It is great that you can watch the documentaries immediately and for free. Students might find this a useful resource for another type of research materials for projects. In my subject areas, I wouldn't use most of these, because we usually need to watch things in the target language, but some of the cultural topics might be relevant, such as some French speaking African countries, art, etc. I haven't ever thought to look for free documentaries online, I suppose there are more sites to check out!

    Wow, what a great site. This is something that I think can really come in handy. There are often times when I or my fellow teachers are looking for something to help expand understanding or make connections with something they are learning. There is a large variety of categories to pick from and not just science and social studies. I think this definitely is a site for teachers, but I could see students using this site too for school projects. I'm going to be passing this one onto my fellow teachers. Thanks Kelsey for a useful resource.
