Tech Friday Begin with Blackboard
Tech Friday Agenda: Vol 2
Sept 17th
Blackboard
I’ll have handouts on the first two options. The third option comes from a simple how to at another website: http://blackboardtips.blogspot.com/2005/04/how-to-upload-many-files-and-folders.html
This is a wonderful option if you’d like to put online all those scanned worksheets. Be sure and rename the documents so they are easy to find for students.
Resources Online
ESOL I tend to think there is some magic about teaching English and truly there is. This site gives hundreds of audio and video clips with questions and lesson ideas for each. Truly a great place to start. http://www.esl-lab.com/
Science Particle theory broken down into a sequential interactive website. The Particle Adventure is really just a unit using the inquiry based model. You may find this a great review activity or a way to present. Try it on the Mimio. http://www.particleadventure.org/index.html
History Finding good and interesting sites for certain areas of history can be difficult. PBS has wonderful information filled sites that are based on series. There is no real need to watch the series to use the lessons because all the information is included at the website. Here is their site on The West.

If you need more technology integration head over to eThemes from the University of Missouri. They list all the lessons online that are grade appropriate. This is their site for the Transcontinental Railroad lessons found online.
