"The teacher can maintain blogs, wikis, assignments, correspondence, and instructional tools-all from one [secure] space they have developed in My Big Campus." How great does this sound! My Big Campus offers a safe, monitored environment for students to blog, hold discussions, and collaborate on group projects online.

I like this idea! We make timelines very often in social studies, and this would be a great resource for students to plan their writing on an informational topic for social studies. Thanks for this useful link!

TripAdvisor™ TripWow allows you to take your photos and upload them into their program for an excellent slideshow for free! The music, background, and animation is very easy to use and makes excellent videos! Similar to Animoto, but easier to use in my opinion.

This site has short animated videos on several different topics. I like to use it to introduce topics to my kindergarten students. The main character Annie asks useful questions and then answers them. You need a subscription to access everything, but some of them are free.
