It is a way for educators to connect with one another, gain new and insightful tools to use in the classroom, and support other teachers.

I decided to use this as my Web 2.0 site. I wish I would have found this site earlier on my search. This site is amazing at the amount of subjects and just cool stuff to look at. If I was to do a Math lesson, then there are some fun games for that. There are also: english, science, puzzles, kid stories, arts and crafts, videos, and even experiements. I especially like this site due to the fact that it has a math section.

This is a great site to go to for educational games. It has hundreds of games for all grade levels and all subjects. This site could be used for free time, and the student could choose the subject and game.

I just recently learned of this website from a teacher who has been using it in her class. She reports that it works great and really helps the students. It is basically an organizational education site for your classroom. Students can log on to Haiku and look at assignments and other upcoming things. Teachers can upload any resource they would like students to view. Similar to Moodle, students can submit homework online. Haiku can also be synced with Google, allowing things such as a Google Calendar to be implemented.

Collaborative Tools/Web 2.0 - This site is very useful for creating a successful team and it also gives tips on co teaching which I think all teachers should be aware of

I have heard of edmodo being used in the classrooms, and I think it is a great way for parents, students, and teachers to connect. Teachers can notify parents about upcoming tests and projects so they can give their students a little extra push to finish a project or study for a big test they have the next week.

Edmodo is a popular site for teachers and students. Its setup is similar to Facebook so that the students and teachers are well familiarized with the functions. This website is great for teachers and students to communicate in a virtual classroom kind of way.

I chose this site because it helps teachers to manage a digital classroom. I would use this site to schedule quizzes, manage progress, and assign homework so students and parents could keep up on expectations and schedules.

I chose this because it helps teachers manage classroom content. I would use this to design lessons and assess student understanding.

I chose this site because it provides a vast majority of teaching tools. I would use this resource for ideas when I am creating a lesson plan.

This website has links to 50 different tools for collaboration between student groups and teachers. One that I think I could use in the future for a health unit was playmeo, which has a bunch of interactive games for groups.

Great source for making educational games for students. Great way for the students to see their results right away.

I liked using Kahoot because it is a way to get the class to interact. In my future classroom I would use this as a participation assignment.

Kahoot is a resource tool that is used in classrooms as a tool for students to use as a quiz like game that helps students learn in a fun way. How I could use this tool in the classroom is before a quiz or test I can create a Kahoot for my class to use to see what they know and what they don't know and to figure out what as a class we need to go over and study.

Quizlet is an online tool that students and educators can use has a study guide, and notes to study for like test, finals, and quizzes. How I would use this as a teacher is that I would create or find a Quizlet has a study guide for my students to use for the subject they are studying for.
