New Sites and Apps

I hope your spring break is treating you well!  I have introduced a new site to the 4th graders: Sumdog! It is a very interactive math game site that will help them practice math concepts at their level.  Even better it is completely aligned to our curriculum but will also change its difficulty level based on what each child needs!  The students brought home their usernames and passwords in their assignment notebooks and are encouraged to show you the site at home!

In other great news, Edmodo, the site we use to showcase what we have been reading has launched an app section.  Currently they have a few apps accessible to us for free, and I have loaded them on to our site.  They are mainly math apps, but you can also access Scootpad from here now too.  Try them out!
