Myths and Legends Generator

This looks like a really fun tool for creating a story - there are images, sound effects and word tools to choose from. I will try this out in our class!

New National Geographic web site for education

The new National Geographic site for teachers and students looks great - I like the cartoon slideshows explaining about geography.

Colder mornings!

Winter
Is approaching fast and with it the school holidays in a week! Hard to believe the eleven week term is nearly over. Our class has been creating interactive mihimihi using Keynote and hot spots to link pages from their cover page which has been created using the Kid pix art tools. They loved learning how to make hot spots and are telling me other ways they could use this process. That's one of the reasons I love teaching. Kids are so creative!
