Okay! I found a new site to love! How do you guys find all these great tools? I just spent 1/2 my plan (guess I should get back to grading) checking out this complete collection of web tools. This would really helpful for any kind of presentation in any class. They have a compilation of websites to create slideshows, movies, podcasts, comic strips, collages....all online. Great technological tools like these are the ways we can get our kids into the 21st century. One site I found is a simple format for creating a picture. Kids could pull something together just by clicking and dragging in two minutes and use it to connect with a novel or a scientific concept or an event in history. So cool. Now, all I can hope is that the student Internet filter doesn't block them. I can see that being the only obstacle to a teacher using these great tools... -QUINN BALDWIN
