    Allows you to create your own digital class library. You put in the title of the book and it will find a picture of the cover and information about the book. Then you can have students use this to browse books in your classroom library.

math manipulatives curriculum

    This is a library of virtual math manipulatives. They are broken up into categories: PK-2, 3-5, 6-8, and 9-12. On the PK-2 category you will find manipulatives for a bar graph, place value, etc. A version can also be downloaded to the desktop. It would be a great thing to use for the SmartBoard as well as individual instruction.

    Shelfari is a social networking site to share a collection of the books you have read, the books you want to read, and your favorite books. The books are displayed on a bookshelf for you to share with others. Students could display their choices for others to view. This could also be added to a library media website so others could see what the media specialist is reading.

    This is a great site that allows you to compile your own personal booklist. It is set up like a bookshelf and you can add titles of the books that you are reading, have read, or want to read. It also allows members to see what other members have on their book shelf. You may also create a group to which members of the group may add books to the book shelf. I have set up a book shelf of my personal books and also one for the Washington High School Library. This is exciting because I have invited the entire staff to be members and hopefully they will add books that they have read or ones that they want students to read. As soon as it is up and running I am going to add a link to our interactive grading system called, Schoolloop for the students to view. Maybe this will spark some interest in reading some great books.\n\n

    This is an awesome site for book lovers! It allows you to browse through popular books, which I love to do, just to see what people are reading for an idea of what to read next. Then you can put books that you own on your "shelf". You can then have friends and share actual books with each other, if you live nearby. It is also a great place to read ratings on books. It then links you to Amazon and other libraries where you could check our or buy the books! You can also put your "bookshelf" on a blog to show off your interests to all your friends.

    This site is a Web-based aggregator which allows you to create a webpage where personalized RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feeds can be collected on one site. The possibilities are endless in a classroom. Students can comment on a topic and share their opinions with others. The site could also be a place for students to listen to book talks by students, the library media specialist, or teacher.

    WePapers helps students and others share and expand their knowledge for free. You can find and download papers and documents you need in a matter of seconds, discuss them with others, or just mess around. WePapers is where you find the kind of quality information you wouldn't find anywhere else on the web, the kind of papers you'd have to dig for in dusty library basements and still not find what you're looking for. WePapers is one big study group! Universities are even using it for class-notes and articles. I could see using this in a classroom situation for research papers and the such. Students would have the opportunity to connect with others around the world, get help, and feedback from others just like them.

    HotChalk is a curriculum, planning, assessment, and professional development site for teachers, students, and parents. This site offers videos and other content information. It also allows teachers to put assignments online. The site claims to reduce plan time because of the wonderful resources for lesson planning it offers but I think I would spend some up front time getting everything figured out. The professional development resources are also very helpful. Users can save information in their desk, library, and class. Initial registration was free.

    This site has free lesson plans, a learning management system, and lots of other great tools.

    This one is sort of a work in progress for me. I had worked with think.com before and now it has joined with ThinkQuest. I am trying to get enrolled through my school which is already registered. So I'll have to report back on how that goes. But, I did find some resources that were in the "library," which didn't require being registered. I even found a website with an activity about our friend, Mr. Dewey! :)

      This looked interesting for organizations or groups at school. However, when I checked out the web site, it wasn't what was described here.
