Nice Little Spelling Site

SpellingCity allows you to enter spelling lists, save them, and have students access them from any computer, including their home computers...so Mom and Dad can be involved! The site lets students hear the word in a really good voice and then hear the word used in a fairly good sentence. The youngsters can practice through a "test" or by playing games with the words. This offers you a bit of variety and fun in what is often a tedious part of teaching/learning.

Make a Snazzy Badge, Seal, Poster, Etc.


This nice little site will let you quickly make a sign, seal, badge, and more. You can then save it on your own computer to print at will. Make one or make a dozen. It is so easy that you don't even have to set aside time...you can do it now!

Puzzle Maker

Flash-gear offers a truly simple way to make a puzzle, then either post it to your own site/blog/wiki or put a link to their own site to house the puzzle. What a great way for youngsters to master their mouse-skills. Maybe you could puzzle the cover of a book, or a picture of a character in one of your books. Be careful with the copyright, though. Children's drawings would be great puzzles. All you'd need is a digital photo of the picture.
