|Anderson |Several online storybooks; many of the early readers allow children to either hear the page read to them, or hear certain words on the page read. |

| | |

| | |

| |This is a researched intervention program called FASTT, which stands for “Fluency and Automaticity through Systematic Teaching with Technology”. It |

| |is designed to help students develop fluency w/ basic math facts. It differentiates instruction based on students’ needs. |

| | |

| | |

| |An easy to use, web-based to-do list. Get organized, stay motivated, and be more productive. |

|Erin Aberli | |

| |I like how this site takes low tech resources - easily attainable resources like highlighters, sticky notes and correction tape and gives teachers |

| |ideas on how to use them in the classroom to help children learn. It also provides tips for mid to high tech resources as well. |

| |  |

| | |

| |Could be a great planning tool for teachers and students alike. Create to-do lists and stay on task. You can set it up on student's mobile phones, |

| |e-mails, and instant messenger programs. Students could use it to keep track of their own work, or the teacher can provide a to-do list for students |

| |to check online at home to make sure they're aware of due dates, prepared for activities, and that their parents have signed thier permission slip |

| |for that field trip. |

| |  |

| | |

| |A great tool that gives students access to these programs that can be integrated into their learning: |

| |• Paint and Draw |

| |• Write |

| |• Make Music |

| |• Play Games |

| |• Flashcards |

| |• Notes |

| |• Clock, Calendar, Calculator |

| |• Kid-Filtered Dictionary |

| | |

| |This website allows students to create their own storybook with names they want to add and personalize the story. Students can also print out |

| |activities from this website.  |

| | |

| | |

| | |

| |Students using this website can create books to print out at the appropriate reading level. |

| | |

| | |

| | |

| |Students can work with fractions on the website.  Students can add, subtract, multiply, and divide fractions. |

|Heather Brewer | |

| | |

| |This site has almost any type of graphic organizer you can imagine. All are printable, but can also be downloaded. |

| | |

| | |

| | |

| |Students can become a part of the online story by naming the characters. Students can also listen to the story read aloud and then print out the |

| |book to keep with them. |

| | |

| | |

| | |

| |There are several neat simulations, in both math and science, for grades 3-12. Very cool. |

|Oliver Carter | |

| | |

| |I thought this was a great website because of the extensive glossary with math terminology that included visuals to go with the definition. It also |

| |links to the main search engine of the Harcourt website. You can find lesson plans of virtually any subject matter you want. This is a great |

| |resource of homework help for students. |

| | |

| | |

| | |

| |Measurement conversion is something I always struggled with in school. This website makes its simple. |

| | |

| | |

| | |

| |This website contains text-to-speech software. This is a very useful tool I could use when helping my students that are struggling readers. |

|Jennifer | |

|Davenport | |

| |This would be great to use for students who are having difficulty reading because it is a collection of talking picture books. |

| | |

| | |

| |  |

| |This website would be really useful because it has an extensive list of graphic organizers that have printable versions to them. It also gives the |

| |grade level that they are appropriate for and how to use them. |

| | |

| | |

| | |

| |This website is great because it gives the students a visual of how to manipulate fractions. It also has interactive games to test what the students|

| |have learned |

|Celeste Doll | |

|Sarah Freshley | |

| | |

| |This would be great for students who need extra help with sounding out words. It assists in vocabulary, fluency and comprehension. It tracks |

| |student’s progress, which means I can go back afterwards and see how the student did and share this progress with parents and administrators. It |

| |also has a Spanish support allowing students to listen to and view words in Spanish. |

| | |

| | |

| | |

| |This site is full of “gizmos” to use in math and science lessons. A gizmo is an interactive simulation that makes key concepts easier to understand |

| |and fun to learn. This would be a great tool to use for students who are visual learners. |

| | |

| | |

| | |

| |This site offers a variety of tools to teach guided reading, phonemic awareness, reading fluency, etc. There are downloadable lesson plans, |

| |worksheets and leveled books. |

| | |

| |I like this site because I loathe math and fractions especially. I am a visual learner, so “seeing” the fractions helps me understand what I am |

| |doing.  I'm happy to report that I got 3 of 3 questions right!  My math confidence level was boosted! |

| | |

| | |

| | |

| |This website was shown to us in MOD II and I use it religiously. It is a great resource for reading material and assessments for students. I love |

| |that the site is easy to use and has a lot of material geared toward different interests. |

| | |

| | |

| | |

| |I like this site because it gives me all kinds of neat ideas for sticky notes, highlighters, and white out. These are three essential supplies for |

| |most elementary schools and now I have a variety of ways in which to incorporate them into my day. Who knew? |

| | |

|Lindsay Lurding | |

| | |

| |This is a great website for literacy, thinking, and math skills. Students can create maps, webs, and diagrams for their reading material. This |

| |website can help students visually organize their reading and writing. |

| | |

| | |

| | |

| |This is a great online website for students who are learning to read. This website provides illustrated stories for kids of all ages. Students can |

| |follow along with the words on the screen. Students can also create and personalize the stories by picking the characters. |

| | |

| | |

| | |

| |This is a great interactive website for students. Students can learn math using online manipulatives. There are dozens of easy to use simulations. |

|Heather Paulsen | |

| |This site is wonderful for the youngest of learners and ESL students. It is full of interactive activities.  I thought the sign language section was|

| |wonderful. |

| | |

| | |

| |This is so cute. There are stories that are read aloud and are interactive. Each story has an interactive activity, take home activity, and reading|

| |lists.  The reading lists connect the stories to other stories of similar themes. |

| | |

| | |

| |The creation of these books would be a great tool to use as a summative assessment project in any content area.  |

|Andrea Patton | |

| | |

| |This website offers animated talking books for students. They take existing books and add animation, sound, music, and narration which can now be |

| |read to you. This would be a great resource for students who were struggling with reading or were visually imparied. |

| |  |

| | |

| |  |

| |Offers visual gizmos that help in student learning. They are easy to use simulations which are also able to be customized to fit your needs. All of |

| |it is related to state and national standards. You can use this to teach fractions, division, or decimals. |

| |  |

| | |

| |  |

| |This converts text files into audio files. So you can make any book an audio book. It can then be played on any portable device or computer. |

|Nermina Salipur | |

| |This is powerful multisensory reading program. 97% students from K-3 who use this program improve their reading and writing skills. Also, great |

| |support for ELL students with instructions in 10 languages. |

| | |

| | |

| | |

| |Great variety of materials. Excellent tools for teaching phonemic awareness, reading comprehension, reading fluency and vocabulary |

|Carrie Smith | |

| |Subscription to a newspaper (with four different levels of instruction)! Great for Differentiated instruction. |

| | |

| | |

| |This software listens to children while they read and improves fluency and comprehension. |

| |  |

| | |

| |Great FREE resources: clip arts, stapleless books, etc. Plenty of publishing resources. |

|Wendy Smithson | |

| |  |

| |This summarizes the uses of post-its, highlighters, and correction tape.  The post-its are especially good for the writing process.  The article |

| |mentioned highlighting tape that can highlight info and then it can be pulled off.  Correction tape can be used to cover up writing that needs |

| |revision or attention. |

|Melissa White |  : free information management software for Windows |

| |     Evernote combines several recent tech innovations -- digital photography, ubiquitous networking, cheap |

| |storage and powerful image processing -- to make Gordon Bell's archiving ways possible for ordinary people. |

| |     The service runs on a desktop program that works on both Macs and PCs, as well as a Web client for |

| |mobile phones (souped-up mobiles with good Web access work best). The software is well-designed and easy to |

| |use, though I noticed some small bugs; these are to be expected, as Evernote is currently operating in an |

| |invitation-only "beta" mode. (The company gave Salon 3,000 invitations to hand out to readers -- click here |

| |for yours.) |

| |     For now, Evernote is free. When the company launches it to the public -- sometime during the next few |

| |months -- there will be a two-tier service, one free and one for a few dollars per month. The free version |

| |will limit how many notes you can add each month; the pay version will be unrestricted. |

| |NaturalReader is a Text to Speech software with natural sounding voices. This easy to use software can |

| |convert any written text such as MS Word, Webpage, PDF files, and Emails into spoken words. NaturalReader can|

| |also convert any written text into audio files such as MP3 or WAV for your CD player or iPod. |

| |   : an extensive set of free online productivity tools, including word processing, |

| |spreadsheets, presentations, and database. online collaboration features are also included |

| |Zoho is a suite of online applications (services) that you sign up for and access from our Website. The |

| |applications are free for individuals and some have a subscription fee for organizations. Our vision is to |

| |provide our customers (individuals, students, educators, non-profits, small and medium sized businesses) with|

| |the most comprehensive set of applications available anywhere (breadth); and for those applications to have |

| |enough features (depth) to make your user experience worthwhile |
