Week 10

Week 10
Explore and reflect on some additional technologies
We will explore some additional free online tools which you can use in class. You will create a post on your PLE blog on three technologies you have explored. Answer the following questions about each of the technologies you have explored:
What is the technology called?
What does it help you do?
Where can it be found?

BrainPOP is an online site that has several learning tools for social studies, science, math, english, art, health, and technology. It has videos, activities, and quizzes that can help students learn. It requires a membership, but it is found online and requires no downloading or anything.

Dreambox is a website designed to help kids with math. It is found online. It teaches kids math skills through games and challenges. The site remembers the child's login and helps the progress farther on which enables them to learn a lot.

FunBrain is also found online. It is a site that has lots of fun games for kids that also help them learn important content. The games are sorted by grade and subject making it easy to use as a fun filler activity for kids to play on after their regular assignment is finished.
