PBS Kids....Raising Readers

This site focuses on building reading skills.  Children practice basic reading skills through online games and activities.  Children, with adult assistance, sign up for free or teachers can sign up.  In the QA section it states: 'Teachers can add as many students as they want to their accounts. They can even organize their students into “classes” to help keep things organized."

Free Rice.......Online Educational Game....Social Justice

I was searching for an interactive literacy site for my students.  I stumbled upon Freerice. This site is owned by and supports the United Nations World Food Programme. Their goal is to provide education for free and to end world hunger by providing free rice.  The object of the games are for every right answer you get they will donate 10 grains of rice through the World Food Programme to help end hunger.
Subjects included are:
Humanities, English, Math, Chemistry, Language Learning, Geography and Sciences.
I mentioned this site to my daughter and she began playing the games to see how much rice she can have donated. This site keeps a daily total on how much rice has been donated.  What an amazing idea!!!!!!!

Literactive -- Primary Interactive-- and more

Many educators incorporate some kind of technology to engage student learning. With web 2 it is impossible not to find something on the internet that cannot be used to help support a teacher lesson or to engage students with an interactive activity. I decided to search for 'interactive literacy games' and I came across many great sites. You just need the time to peruse all of them. I did look at some and I found the following to be worth a visit.
