Interesting sites to share
Posted by bookend on March 10, 2006
For free you can join the Geography zone at http://www.geographyzone.com They have a button where a teacher can set up a group activity for your class and then they can compete against one another in the geography quiz. It looks like fun. If you would want me to be the teacher and set up and manage your class I would be willing to give it a try. I do not know how much time it will take.
And another site, http://www.bkfk.com/ looks like it would be a neat challenge area for the students who need something extra. But then you might find a project to spice up your spring and provide the spark of energy to make learning fun on the downside of the year. This is suggested for grades 3-12.
Or would you like access to a telescope experience from California’s Mount Wilson Observatory. You need to purchase the software but access to the telescope is free. Go to www.telescopesineducation.com
