A pool of resources related to Mary MacKillop in the Diocese of Wollongong

A really excellent blog with many resources; it acually is an interdiocesan project (Michelle Shearman had compiled the resources and graciously given permission to other teachers to use).

These sites are a compilation of the many sites Sam and Cathy have given us on a Tuesday afternoon technology session. Some of the sites/resources/ideas are new and very worthwhile looking at.

If you want to create word clouds in different shapes...this is the site to do it! I will explain more about it at next weeks IT session...It looks really cool.

Here is the presentation i used which shows Forty-Seven interesting ways to use wordle in the classroom....Enjoy!

Wordle is the other tool we discussed today for creating word clouds...Will put a link to the presentation sharing lesson ideas above...

A good site for comprehension strategies and summarising. This site highlights most frequently used words in your text with the click of a button. Gives you images to go with your text aswell as a visual thesaurus. Give it a try, see if it compliments your comprehension strategies.

This is the tool we used at today's session. You copy and paste (or type) the words into the box, and press the "Sift" button, from there, you can view definitions, images, videos etc about any word from the passage you have typed - very powerful tool. 

Another vehicle for students to present with ...... I like it!!! Great for those students who are into scrapbooking. Can be embedded into a blog.

A site to download the NSW Foundation Font for free

Great site for virtual excursions- has user-submitted videos from around the world. 

I like it, possibly good for professional development

"the museum of science, art and human perception" A great site to engage kids in science

National Literacy and Numeracy Week initiative- many sites using numbers, shapes, patterns, space and geometry. Sites using words, poetry, reading ideas and lots more. Could be advertised in School Bulletin around the NLNW activities in your school.

Great resource for teachers and for parents (School Bulletin ad?) coming up to National Literacy and Numeracy Week; the viodeos are very professional with speakers such as Prof. Freebody. Also has titles such as Numeracy in the Home, Using an empty number line, Talk about Text and others (great for teacher professional development).
