This is a great website for science videos, photographs and information for students and teachers to go through to find information. I love many of the videos you can look through to help make a lesson more concrete for students. However the videos are many and great they always start with advertisements which I do not like and think it takes away from the video. However if you look at the Kid version of National Geographic I did find they did not have advertisements before the video begins.
This is a site that can put interactive links into a online photograph. I am going to have students create their own Thinglink when we begin reading "A House on Mango Street." This will serve as a mini research project. If that goes well, I will probably also use this tool with my theatre classes when the Tony nominations are announced- the students will make a Thinglink that captures the history of the awards and the current nominees. The students will be able to imbed video clips for many of the shows.
