I am super impressed with the work the Kahn Academy has done on these videos. The videos are comprehensive and complete. Kahn has created videos for each section of the test (reading, math, writing and essay). They go through each question comprehensively and outline how the correct answer is reached. I will be recommending this site to my high school principal and ask that teachers integrate these videos into their daily lessons! I will also begin looking at these video with my own children. Granted my children are only going into 6th grade, but I am already thinking about testing for them. I will have 3 kids going through college at the same time therefore I need to start prepping them for doing well on these tests. I will hope and pray for some scholarships!!
I love this site. It is a great way to search old newspapers online for historical information. There are hundreds of resources and the search gives the user real scanned copies of original prints of newspapers when the story was printed. I was even able to look up my high school career athletic highlights from my local paper! Give it a try - you won't be disappointed.
Very cool website for teachers to gain quick access for understanding of material. I love this website because Teachers can access the kahoot via the cloud. That means they can create quizzes and/or surveys in the cloud no matter where they are located. This website is a online Game Based Response system (comparable to Socrative). It can be easily accessed by phones, tablets or pcs- all of which the student so badly want to use. Once the quizzes/surveys are created the kids will receive instant feeback to the questions they answer. They receive points for questions answered and more points for the student that answers with the correct answer the quickest. Logging in is very simple, they can access the quizzes with a pin by visiting https://kahoot.it/#/and/or they can also get a login to track their results. Check it out and let me know what you think!
