Spelling City

2/23/2010

 
I think many of you have used this Spelling City before, so I just wanted to remind you that  it can be a helpful and different way to spend time learning your spelling words.  It is up in the Helpful Link Section now.

Just type in your list, and then study, be tested, or play a number of different games based on your words.

Flixtime

2/23/2010

 
This is a little late for Anything Projects, but I just came across this web application that allows you to upload photos, videos, and text to create a music video... or suppose any type of video.

The site is called Flixtime and it now has a link in the "Helpful Links" section.  You might want to use it to extend your Anything Project just for fun, or you just might want to have some fun with it.

If you end up creating something, let me know!  I want to see what you come up with.

Sweet Search

Sweet Search is a search engine designed especially for students.  Instead of searching billions of websites, Sweet Search searches about 35,000 approved websites.  So instead of getting results that include unreliable, unsafe, inappropriate, or unhelpful websites, you get safe, reliable, student friendly results.

Try it out now for your research project.  There is a link in the "Helpful Links" section of our class website, or you can read more about it here.
