BEEN GONE TOO LONG
One of my favorite websites is Mathwire.com Features for March 2008 include activities for Dr. Seuss, St. Patrick's Day, Tangrams, and Problem-Solving. You can also access their archives for previous months and years. Get them to email you with their monthly updates. Through Mathwire I found LINKS Learning, which has teaching videos tailor-made for kids.
Jen J. - My daughter says that if you click on the November post title, it will send you to another page. Scroll down until you see the November post again. Continue to scroll down until you see "post comment." Click on that. Let me know if that helps.
I'm in the middle of a major kitchen and bathroom remodel. No stove, no sink, no toilet, no tub. Thank heavens for the master bathroom which is still intact. Spent three hours today choosing a bathroom vanity - who knew there were so many options??!!
If you're into Mosaic of Thought and Strategies That Work, be mindful of any links that take you to Stenhouse Publishing. Access to online chapters of specific titles are only good for a given amount of time. Have Stenhouse email you their notices of latest publications and link to those titles. There you'll be able to view selected chapters online. BUT for a limited time only.
Megan, have your kids post comments - I need feedback. Karen

November Update
RECENT CHANGES...
I've reorganized the setup to make it more user-friendly. Sites for teachers will be listed on the left. Sites for students will be listed on the right of the page. There are new sites and links, so check them out. Place Value is new; I've added ABC order to the Primary sites, as well as a whole new section on Expository Writing. I've also been exploring Science links- Light, Optics, Sound, Plants, Motion and Design, Reaction Time, the Earth, Moon, and Stars, Butterflies- and Social Studies sites on the Colonial period. I've researched sites on Money, Time,Geometry, Art,and interactive Grammar, Spelling, Writing and Reading sites. All of these will be added in December.
Thanks to Megan for including my blog address in her Schoolnotes webpage for parents and her kids to utilize at home. Thanks, also, Bill and Karen, for your enthusiasm, input, and feedback.

I went to: http:4teachers.org and found 4Teachers Family of Tools. There's RubiStar, PersuadeStar, Teacher Tacklebox, NoteStar - and Arcademic Skill Builders (http:arcademic.altec.org/) This is where I found the four arcade games today, but you have to scroll down and find the games listed on the left. Then click on the game you want.

Spent time today rearranging the page layout. I also found more math websites than I know what to do with. The key thing is to create direct links to meaningful activities and games. One math website I went on yesterday was HUGE! I spent two hours clicking on links - disappointed in many of them. Some take too long to play; others are just boring.
