    Great tool! Easy to Use for teachers and students. There is a paid version and a free version. Paid version gives you more options for characters and backgrounds. I used this site to create a digital social story.

    It took awhile to learn the various features and how to get the characters to move/actions. But once you get it it is fun!

    Very cute! Users can be very creative and so easy to make educational, (social stories, instructions, etc)

    This site offers articles about wild and domestic animals with videos, basic care info, fundraiser/how to help info as well as what is being done to help info. This would be helpful with the endangered species g4 project as well as general animal education or community outreach/awareness projects. Caution: It's very sad:(

    This site would be for upper middle school and higher students. It presents news stories in a Facebook like listing that you can click on and read the full article. It does present some controversial topics that may not be appropriate for younger readers.

    This looks interesting. I like that it has a variety of subscriptions options for families, schools, libraries, and specifically mentioned Home Schoolers too. I was not able to get into the free trial paper at this time. It also offered lessons plans and supports. I would like to look at the free trail issue - will try again later to get it.

    Didn't find much to look over to evaluate this site.

    This is a great site that is focused on the student in a kid friendly manner (k-8). It includes a great spelling page, where as you type the word - the picture of the word is displayed! Also, it has thorough lesson plans for teachers and interactive rubrics for your class.
