After reading the chapters and completing the discussion questions for chapters 5 and 15, I am very excited to begin using the new resources outlined in the book. It amazes me how much information is available via the web. As educators, I believe we get so bogged down with our day to day requirements and life that we miss out on finding valuable websites due to lack of time.
After perusing the ePALS Classroom Exchange, I realized how useful this site could have been last year with a couple of my units.
My friend suggested a website that she discovered this summer at a workshop.....it is
www.thinkfinity.com It provides a wealth of information and has been promoted for use at various National Conferences.
We should all ban together and share useful sites to enhance our teaching........

I agree! Time is not our friend!
I have checked out thinkfinity and it is great!!!
There are so many resources available to us online. I'm glad this class has let us know about some of them.
There's a whole other world out there, right? It's great to have those resources available, especially when most are free. So often, I've had great ideas but nixed them over finances.
Thanks for the info on the site. I took a quick look - looks very useful!
I think it is impressive also with all that is available on the web. I'm learning that it can be a helpful tool for me in my classroom. I guess this is what the future is all about evolving technology.
This class has helped me cut out steps that used to bog me down when working with technology.
The website you posted was great
