For the kids who love sports, this site has opportunities to make cartoons, write stories, solve puzzles, watch videos, read, etc. Would be a good way to motivate the reluctant reader or writer.

I think this would be a great reinforcer for a student who loves sports!!!

I like this website for students who are interested in sports. However, the readability of a lot of the articles is quite high. This would be a difficult website for struggling readers to access as the language in the articles is advanced for lower elementary students.

a digital form of an updated weekly reader.

This magazine is very accessible! I have seen the multiple reading levels used in the classroom setting. Students are getting the same information but the text is written with vocabulary and structure that is appropriate for their current reading level. Great Magazine for any classroom!

The school I work in uses this and everyone loves it!

Great site that offers teaching and learning materials based on CURRENT TOPICS in the NY Times. Students can post their opinions, take quizzes, take part in self tests, check out the word of the day,etc. Today's "fill in the blank article" is based on the story of a cat from Co that was lost for 5yrs and found in NYC!!! Read article, then try to fill in the blanks!

Great resource with interactive areas, Teacher tools, Current and relevant.

I thought that there was almost too many articles on each page!

would not let me into any of the games on my mac :(

I was able to access the games. I liked how many of the games had directions with captions and read aloud. Good instructions

Lots of lesson plans organized by grade level using the various graphics.

I like the story map.

Easy to use, directions are clear.

This website offers tons of games that are interactive, fun, and provide positive reinforcement for the students when they get the right answer. These games are good for reinforcing information learned in the classroom

sessions are broken down by grade level and curriculum area

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.

current events and news

We use this all the time. One of the best accessible tools for current events around. you can grab the icons for communication boards. they even give you boards in the lesson area.

You can get a version that reads it outloud.

I like that in you mapping tools that you can add links and images.
