Web 2.0

[|Totlol] This web 2.0 site is a wonderful resource for both parents and teachers. It is powered by YouTube and has many different video clips on all different subjects. I could see myself using this in my classroom to show different clips of songs, etc that my students would enjoy. The only downfall of this site that I could find is that you have to pay a yearly membership of 18.00.

[|Kidthing] This web 2.0 site is a site that allows children to read, chat, create, learn and play all at one site safely. When you get to the site, you need to download kidthing 2.0 (for free). Once downloaded, you can search the site to learn more about it. I could see myself downloading some of the interactive books to be used on Smart Boards. The downfall of this site is that you need to purchase the different games, books, etc from the kid things store. However, NEA has partnered with Kidthing and throughout the year, offers teachers and librarians free downloads.
