Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder - 0 views

  •  
    Audacity can be used for many things. One thing that I want to use Audacity for is for my struggling readers and those students that have difficulty retelling what they read. How I will use Audacity is to have students read a passage and then with Audacity retell everything they can remember. After retelling they will listen to themselves on Audacity and highlight everything in their passage. This will also them to reflect on their own skills.

How Many of Me - 0 views

  •  
    How Many of Me begins by stating that there are 305,818,604 people in the United States. It then asks, "How many have your name?" You type in your first and last name and it will tell you how many others in the U.S. have the same name. It will also tell you how many people in the U.S. have the same first name alone and how many have the same last name alone. There are links for statistics and data on famous people's names. This site would mostly be for fun, but you could tie it into ancestry and immigration lessons in the classroom.

Web 2.0 in the Classroom - 1 views

  • I realize that most people would think I am unqualified to sit on such a committee because I am not a doctor, I have never worked in an emergency room, and I have never treated a single patient. So what? Today I have listened to people who are not teachers, have never worked in a classroom, and have never taught a single student tell me how to teach."

      We get this all the time in public education. From our legislators to some of our administrators who have spent very little time in a classroom, have forgotten what it was like, or were not the best classroom teachers when they were there.

    This site is not necessarily for students - unless they are working and saving for college, but I think this would be very useful for a lot of us, who live on a budget!

This is a personal finance software that helps you to manage your finances for multiple accounts, but it will all be in one place now! You can also print charts, track your progress and see where you can save money.
