Welcome

Welcome to my blog. This is an educational blog that is geared toward using technology in the classroom. Today's schools are moving toward more of a technology-centered approach, and we educators should be prepared to meet those demands, for the welfare of our students.

Websites

These are some of the websites that I have used either in this program or in my classroom. Some of the sites are free, yet some do require a small subscription. I hope that you find some of them helpful.

Free website with videos for teachers. This is a great site because, often times, our school filters block YouTube. http://www.teachertube.com/

This is a subscription site, but it is very helpful because of the extensive content areas. It only goes to 8th grade.

This is a free site from the Discovery Channel. Initially, it seems like just Science, but it is actually a great resource for interdisciplinary units.  
http://school.discovery.com

The next site is another subscription site, but it is well worth it. It allows the educator to connect content to movies. This is definitely putting it on the students' level.
http://www.teachwithmovies.org

These are great resources to utilize when connecting technology with education. I hope these are of some help.
