Teacher and author Larry Ferlazzo shares some great resources for creating visuals to accompany short texts.  This could be used by both teachers and students at all levels of instruction to address differentiated learning and to offer students options for demonstrating their learning.

Barbara - Thanks for sharing this blog article and the teaching tip. What a great idea for differentiation and integration of digital literacy. This provides students with the opportunity to demonstrate their digital literacy skills with respect to appropriate use of images, citation, etc.

LiveBinders is your 3-ring binder for the web, create an online binder for content curation. Livebinders were created so that anyone, including educators, could do with digital information what we typically do with the papers on our desk -- organize them into nice containers like three-ring binders on a shelf. With these online binders, you can also upload your documents and easily combine them with your links in a neat and organized way. Once you've created your binder by filling it with links, resources, photos or videos, you can share it via email, link it to anything, embed it in a blog or view it in presentation mode With LiveBinders ,you can organize a lesson there, collaborate with a colleague in writing that lesson on a binder, and share it across many spaces. You can even have students work collaboratively on binders. Creating a LiveBinder to support your lesson planning will save you time and become a living document that you can update anytime.

This is a great way to organize all of your resources online. It looks very interesting and you can get good resources from the featured binders that are on the site.

I love live binders. I created one for each of the classes I teach. It is easy to add information, the class notes and handouts, links for extra practice, etc. Students can easily get to it from anywhere.

Worth a read...and useful to share with parents, administrators and students.

This is a Youtube channel that has a flipped grammar lessons. It is very useful for Arabic teachers using Al-Kitaab series. It allows them to use class time in activating knowledge more than explaining grammatical concept.

This site/blog has lots of ideas for differentiation.  

This blog is run by two Louisville KY teachers of Spanish and is full of great ideas: "tech, hands-on, culture, activities by the 3 modes" to name a few. Open for teachers to post as well.
