Web Resources

I thought all of the web resources we discussed in class were useful.  I especially like Rubistar, United Streaming, and Ethemes.  Rubistar is a great tool to have.  Instead of making your own rubric it does it for you.  This cuts down some time on projects and lessons. Rubistar has really good rubrics for projects that would be great for the classroom.  I would use Rubistar in my classroom because I use it now for my education classes.  It helps that Rubistar is easy to use also.  United Streaming is awesome.  I love all the videos that you can use in your classroom.  It is easy to navigate and is broken into different sections.  I love the videos for all of the subjects.  Especially videos for Science and Social Studies.  I feel that these two subjects are harder to understand for some students.  Showing a video for these subjects might help the students grasp certain concepts.  I loved the magic school bus when I was a child and was happy to see it was still present now.  I also enjoyed Ethemes, I liked the lesson plans and the activites they had for the students.  United Streaming would be most useful to me.  I loved the videos and the lesson plans that went with them.
