Chalk Talk Friday represents conversations and brilliance I’ve discovered traversing my way through the Blogosphere. From professional to personal development, these are the posts and links have in some way touched my head or my heart.
Amazing things this week!
- VisuWords is fabulous new, online graphic dictionary and thesaurus. It is an amazing tool-I have been showing it to students and teachers all week! It makes words, vocabulary, definitions literally come alive right before your eyes! I know you will love it!
- Learning to Teach with Technology: This is a great conversation going on over Education Week. Part of a Technology Counts Initiative to enhance instruction for science and mathematics. Lots of great links to this important conversation.
- Wanting to get parents involved? Here are some great resources collected for the International Reading Association-books, articles, videos, DVD’s-lots of good stuff!
- Comprehension Strategy Instruction-I hit the jackpot here! Lessons and downloads on Inferring, Determining Importance, Schema, and more. Too many lessons to mention. Great find for teachers K-12!
- Blogs, wikkis, twitter…it is all so confusing sometimes! Check out this new online glossary for everything Web2.0. Great resource for teachers and students alike!
Happy Friday, friends! enjoy the resources and have a great weekend!
