Spell City
Spell City is a really cool application that I would use or will use if I ever move back down to the elementary level. The reason for this being that many of the science vocabulary that my 6th graders use is not recognized in the program. For example, it recognizes Earth or Volcano, but not plate tectonics etc. Still I really like this web site and recommend its use for students in general to help them with their spelling or literature. If I taught English Language Arts, this would be perfect to use right now.
Animoto
Animoto was fun and creative and I know that my students would most likely enjoy making a short video. Unfortunately district firewall would prevent it plus, as far as I am aware, the student laptops don't allow downloading or uploading of documents or pictures. Still this application is fun and is similar to iMovie which student computers have.
