YouTube videos in School Tube

I love this, you can use School Tube to make some of those great YouTube videos available to your students. Sign up for School Tube and become a moderator for your school. Then, once you have been approved you click the Upload Video button in your School Tube account and import a video from the web. Copy and paste the URL from the video you want. It will take a few minutes (sometimes longer) for your video to be accepted (it will be approved if you are a moderator), you will get an email with the link to your video. Here is an adorable video on the Butterfly Life Cycle done by a Kindergarten class. I found this on YouTube (which is blocked by my district) and uploaded it to School Tube, I can't wait to share this with my 1st grade teachers.

I found this website that looks very cool.It is called
Answer Garden You post a question and people have the chance to type in a short 2 or 3 word answer. What a great way to start a conversation with students! You will see the answers appear below you question and if you put your cursor on an answer you will see how many times that was entered. The site has lots of examples, an Answer Garden is very easy to create and embeds easily into your blog or wiki! Give it a try in the example below.

How do you feel about wikis... at AnswerGarden.ch.
