Helen and Anna, The Tech Chicks, offer a variety of online resources and tools through their frequent podcast updates. In this particular recording, there were several websites I am definitely interested in exploring more.
First, makeuseof.com-offers a long list of printable calendars in various themes and types which can be very handy for organization and planning. After our "Fun with Text" assignments last week I really enjoyed their discussion of Tagxedo, during which I learned more tips and tricks for using the site. Next, Knoword is a fun vocabulary game which would be great for students to play when they finish an assignment early and something to do until the next lesson. Finally, with such high emphasis placed on standardized tests, many educators and parents alike worry about decreased creativity in today's youth. At 11 Free Resources About Creativity, there are great ideas for fostering creativity in your students which I am excited to read more about.
