Tell us about a couple of your favorite websites you use. They could be something you use personally or something you use in school. Anything that you wish to share with the group that help make your life easier or that you love to use with kids.
I use Pinterest a lot for both school and personal ideas. Most other websites I use are for running/training purposes. I use mcmillanrunning.com to set paces. I go to runnersworld.com for articles. At school, I use historychannel.com all the time for quick video clips.
For personal purposes, I visit ESPN, Reddit, and Raiderfans.net a lot! When I'm at school, I tend to use Google to search for new ideas and lessons that I can incorporate in the classroom.
Some of my favorite websites I visit are CNET, The Blaze, Newegg, and Netflix. When I am at school I like to use Youtube when I can to show videos to my students.
Personally, I use Pinterest, Amazon, and Shutterfly pretty frequently. Pinterest is addictive! I find all kids of interesting things there! Amazon is my go to book, education game, movie purchasing site. I love Shutterfly for creating books and purchasing prints of my daughter. At school, I use Google for just about everything. I also like to direct my students to Hooda Math, Hooda Word, and Hooda Brain.
Personally I use ESPN for news on sports and updates about my favorite teams. I also love to watch TEDtalks, and have even used some in my classroom. And of course, TT4T is the site I will be visiting a lot this summer, and as I am getting finished with my CCUs.
For personal use I travel to several different websites on a frequent basis. The first that I follow is Hawkeye Report (iowa.rivals.com) this is a site with a ton of information on Iowa Hawkeye athletics. The second site that I go to is ESPN (espn.go.com) which is the basic sports news site where I can follow my favorite teams. The last of the three is the site TT4T which has a variety of useful information for my teaching.
I really like to use Twitter, specifically the app Tweet Deck for professional development. I follow a bunch of hashtags that I am always finding something useful from. I also use Youtube a ton and the website keepvid.com to download these videos to my machine. Lastly i use three websites The Gilder Lehrman Institute, the Avalon Project, and American Heritage to find resources for my students to read/access to "do" real history.
I frequently use Twitter and follow several colleagues who post links to useful information. I also use two Websites that are useful for teaching research to students, NoodleTools.com which is a wonderful way for organizing information and sources for writing research papers or doing other types of research projects, and Turnitin.com which is the plagiarism/editing Website that the district subscribes to. Students submit papers to the Website so that they and I can see if they are providing documentation for similarity and enough original writing in the paper. It also has a corrections piece that teachers may use to help correct rough drafts for grammar and formatting errors. For my personal use, I like Facebook for keeping up with family and friends and to promote the outreach committee that I chair at my church and inform followers of projects and concerning outreach ministries. I also use mlb and espn to feed my sports needs.
I like to use Historychannel, Youtube, and Google to reinforce lessons in class. Personally, I visit Arrowheadpride, ESPN, Huskernation, and Celticpride to keep up with the sports world.
Personally, I use facebook more that I probably need to. I also use ESPN, Huskers.com, and Craigslist to find cheap things for my spot at the lake. Professionally, I use youtube, readwritethink.org, freedomwritersfoundation.org, and Noodletools.
