Learning A-Z


It's Teacher Appreciation Week! Now, I love the homemade cards and signs, but every so often there's a true present that shows how much teachers are appreciated. Interested?
Learning A-Z hosts a family of sites that you may already use in your classroom. If you already use these sites, then you know that they are subscription sites. Well for one day each week, Learning A-Z is opening one of their sites for FREE!! Did you hear that? FREE!!

The last time they did this, I almost crashed my computer from downloading files nonstop! :) Best fun ever! So, grab a cup of coffee (and possibly an external hard drive) and dive in for great resources! I know these resources are not necessarily "integrating technology", but they are fabulous! Here's the schedule:

All week: Raz-Kids is a student-centric site where kids can practice reading online anytime and anywhere.

May 2, 2011- Reaing A-Z is a fantastic collection of printable and projectable books and resources that spans 27 reading levels.

May 3, 2011- Vocabulary A-Z has 12,000+ words that are organized by categories and give teachers the ability to create customized vocabulary lists.

May 4th, 2011- Science A-Z has science curriculum resources spanning more than 60 units, all are written to three reading levels.

May 5th, 2011- Writing A-Z has many of the resources you need to teach writing in your classroom.

May 6th, 2011- Reading tutors provides more than 400 reading resource packets that can be used for one-on-one tutoring.

  1. Hi Technology In High Heels,
    I have sent you the Liebster Blog Award. I love your blog.

    1-Head to my blog and right click on the Liebster Blog Award. Click on "save as" and add it to whatever photo album you have.
    2- Go into your blog set-up & click on "design". There will be an area that says "add a gadget". Click on that. A lot of options will come up, but choose "picture". It will then prompt you to choose a picture to add. Select the Liebster Award.
    3-You can move it anywhere on your blog by just clicking on "picture" and sliding it around.
    Hope this helps!!!
