Thing #6


 This list of Go2Web2.0 is a real treasure! The organization of it is so neat and helpful. I have to admit, before I searched only through Google, and it wasn’t efficient. While explore Go2Web2.0 list, I spent a quality time checking different sites. Not so easy to just start with ONE, so I chose two of them.

             I chose to discover the Web 2.0 tool named http://www.Gameclassroom.com  because it makes educational material enjoyable for students. This site has many engaging and educational games for kids, which paired with related worksheets. Also, website offers useful learning tips and interactive homework help. In my classroom I can use games and video from this site, I can use their vast library of lesson plans, math and language arts worksheets, and problem sets as an additional resource for students, teachers and parents. I think it is important for elementary school to teach through fun games and activities.

While exploring Learnboost.com  I found a software the teacher would need to manage a classroom. This application is a free tool to manage the classroom by tracking attendance, using gradebook software, creating lesson plans, reporting students’ progress. In addition, the teacher can share grades on assignments, attendance records, course calendars, and class policies with parents. This software will save teacher’s time with great help in planning, assessing, and reflecting on students’ academic performance.
