Website Review 4/28

I finally got onto www. funbrain.com.! The school wouldn't let me on this site. I had to go to my home computer to make this work. It was worth the wait! My Kindergarten class would like this site. It has flash arcades, math, reading, playground games, (I went to the Kindergarten section and played a game of catching fish), web books, comics, and movies.
In the Reading section I clicked on Tess's Tree for younger students. It had games, arts & crafts, movie reviews, learning activities, free software and printable worksheets.
There was a funblog for students to participate in raising funds for pennies for police dogs.
The teachers section lists gradebook, standards, curriculum, homework, quizlab, and teacher vision.
I would use this site for my Kindergartners to use as a fun Friday activity. I would need to get to the computer lab early to get all 17 computers where they needed to be in Tess's Tree.

I have also recently had the chance to check out this website. What a great site for primary grades. I have not had the chance to use it yet with my students, but will for sure let my parents know about the great activities it offers.
