Brain breaks kids love - GoNoodle - 0 views

  •  
    This site allows teachers to have an organized list of brain breaks for kids. The site is interactive and kids choose an avatar that builds as they do more activities.
  •  
    I am on the Blue Zone Committee for the building, and this looks like a valuable resource for me. Brain Breaks are very useful with 4th graders. Have you tried looking up "Just Dance" Videos on Youtube? I have a collection saved to my personal youtube channel called, "Brain Breaks." http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUN_fyIUtwFrGc-c0f-E7Ai14fW0WTeIk

Storybird - Your Stuff - 0 views

    This site allows students to choose artwork from the site and then create a story.
  •  
    This is a fun way for elementary students to make their own stories online. There are different backgrounds and characters for the students to select. I have used this with my own students and they liked that they were able to share their online book with their parents at home.

lino - Sticky and Photo Sharing for you - 0 views

  •  
    This site allows people to collaborate and create stickies to help share and remember ideas.
  •  
    This would be great for formative assessment. You create a wall on which students can post "sticky notes" to add to discussion, answer a question, ask questions, etc.

    Lindsey, these look like great Web 2.0 tools. Do you have any favorites on this list?

    This is a great resource! I have tried a few on the list (Edmodo, Wordle, Prezi, Twitter). Many are new resources. I look forward to exploring their potential.

    This site is set up like Facebook where teachers can create classroom pages to communicate with students in a variety of ways.

    A safe place for you to add classes and share assignments and collaborate with student and staff. It has a Facebook feel
  •  
    Great way to get students started in organizing thoughts into words and posts. Excellent way to join and communicate with other teachers to share and collaborate with.
  •  
    Edmodo is a great resource. I have used it with my classes for 2 years. There is so much you can do with this site! I still haven't mastered everything that is available. It is also a great way to build your PLN by joining other groups. I love that it includes the ability to award badges. Kids are highly engaged with Edmodo and really enjoy posting to each other. I think this resource is equally shared between teachers and students, but even if you don't use it with your class, it is still a great way to connect with other educators around the world. Other than Facebook, which is less desirable because of the lack of teacher control, I am not aware of any similar resources for classroom teachers.

    I like the teacher control I can have and the collaborative environment. The security and control that makes it good is also it's limitation in exposure to the outside world.

    This site allows teachers to create a class Twitter account so that students don't need individual usernames and passwords.
  •  
    twiducate is the perfect solution for elementary and secondary students. Rather than having your students sign up and enter an email address, you sign up and create a class code.

    Our school just adopted this LMS as we go 1-to-1 next year. I was on the team that selected which LMS to use and this one was selected for its interface and ease of connection with google drive. Therefore, it is extremely effective in keeping students organized with their classes. I like how it promotes consistency between teachers. This tool promotes a new type of blended learning environment that increases collaboration between teachers and between students. As i mentioned there are other LMS to consider. But this one was the right choice. (This was also the cheapest option for the district which was just a coincidence, I'm sure ;-)
  •  
    A learning platform for schools to use for administration of curriculum, content, assignments, and a platform for collaboration and communication. 
  •  
    I realize this is one of the initial ones for an example, but my district uses it already and I have a lot of examples to share for my blog post!
