I wanted to find resources for reading as I am apart of the English Department at my school. We are always looking for resources to share with each other in our meetings. I came across this resource and found the grammar section. Many topics are presented such as contradictions, semi colons, sentences, etc... What really caught my eye were the videos towards the bottom of the page. Here they have videos that explain the differences between words that sound the same but have different meanings. They use toys and action sequences to explain which are very funny! Each of the grammar lessons have unique learning techniques, whether users need to select correct choices or simply view pictures that help represent the learning. I could see using or providing the examples given in many lessons.

While looking at A Great List of OER Resources, I found G4C. I thought I'd see if there were any online games students could play to add to the immigration unit. Not only did I find a great one on iCivics called Liberty Belle's Nation, it also linked me to lesson plans with learning objectives, readings, a variety of activities to access comprehension, Scholastic Teacher links to interactive tour guides of Ellis Island, virtual field trip links, graphs with data, and (Scholastic) lesson plans on this topic, leading from the past to present.

I chose this lesson/activity because the 3rd grade creates biography presentations and since we are now a K-8 school this would be a great idea to get different age groups to work together.

I'm going to be sure to pass this along because I can see this fitting right in with our new reading/writing curriculum.

I was looking for ideas to add to our immigration unit. This was full of ideas! I found 7 different lesson plans that contained videos, text, hands on research/analyzing/presenting activities complete with rubrics! The one I found most interesting was looking more at current immigration issues, and with countries bordering the US.

This is a really fun quiz site where you can make your own quizzes and they are presented in trivia-game format. The faster students answer, the more points they get. They also use memes to make them funny and interesting for the students.
