Google Docs - 0 views

    The directions are easy: Upload your files from your desktop, edit and view your docs from any computer or smart phone. This is a great resource for teachers and students as the students can work on an assignment from their computer at home and the teacher can access it and see how they are doing.

    I have used this for my 5th graders. We have our own web page, and I can put links and assignments on it for them to access. I actually have it set as the home page on all of the desktops in my classroom.

    This interactive web site combines Google Search with Google Maps to create truly interest-grabbing Scavenger Hunts called TerraClues. You can access lots of already-made hunts that involve your current curriculum, or you have the ability to create your own TerraClues to fit your particular classroom needs. Students learn about maps, curriculum content, and how to use a search engine.

Myplick - share PowerPoint and Google presentations online, slideshows, slide show - 1 views

  •  
    Myplick is a free service that lets you share, embed and discover presentations and slide shows online. You can upload your presentation documents in a variety of formats such as powerpoint, pdf, etc. If you want to add narration or sound effect to your presentation, you can upload an audio file and have the option to synchronize the audio with your slides. After you create a presentation you will have the choice to either publicly share with everyone or only share it within a private group. You can also find out how users are viewing your plick, for example, how much time people stayed on each slide. This would be a good way for students to share their presentations with others.

MAPme.com - Map your World! - 0 views

  •  
    Create a map of your favorite places, travels or destinations. Public, private, or community maps are available to make. I could see using this site in a variety of ways. It could be used as a beginning of the year "Get-to-know-you" activity. It could also be used to focus in on a specific geographical area in a Social Studies or Geography unit.
