Voice Threads

Voice threads caught my eye almost instantly.  I think this is something the kids would love to do and have fun with.  I think it could be very useful in the classroom as well.  Let the kids have fun with learning...!

Google Docs

Google Docs looks like a great program to use in the classroom.  I dont know much about it, so i need to go back and play around with it a little.  I just dont see how useful it will be for the younger grade levels....

HOTS integrated in classroom setting

HOTS can be very useful in classrooms these days.  With the world turning to technology as a way of life, it seems only right that we teach and use it in classrooms as well.  The school systems need to keep up with the rest of the world.  Blogs can work particularly well for teachers posting news for parents, homework, and upcoming projects.  For students, it can be great for them to ask for help from others or to check their upcoming assignments.
