I came across Language Guide on Larry Ferlazzo’s blog. He mentioned it for the ELL classroom and especially the interactive quizzes. Presented in a dictionary form, you can see the object, see the word, and hear the pronunciation. To get the interactive quiz, click on the options at the top of the page. Aside from ELL students, this might also be useful for any beginning foreign language student.

Unlike books (that often come with a suggested grade level for reading skills), websites don’t always these features. The Readability Test Tool is a quick way to gauge the reading level of the site. Simply paste in the URL (or supply some text from the web page), and you can get an appropriate grade level. This is calculated using several reading standards. (From TeachersFirst)

100 Snowballs

Here is a site from ABCya where you students can create with 100 snowballs. Explore their creativity-or practice their counting / grouping skills. This would be fun on a SMART Board or perhaps as a station. (From TeachersFirst)

Tim Tebow does. And you and your class can join Tim on February 15. Check this site for all the details. It will start at 9 ET (and according to the site, continue all day- based on this, I’m guessing it is not a live feed but rather a recording). This Book It site also has a variety of pintables for your class. Click here to register. (from iLearntechnology)
