Read Write Think

Wesley Fryer’s blog introduced me to the The Read Write Think web site. This site is filled with many online tools that can kickstart even hesitant teachers into using web-based tools.

As a fan of comic books (a.k.a. graphic novels), I am enjoying playing with the Comic Creator as an alternative to our well-used KidPix program. This online app can be used as part of our Viewing and Representing strand of the Language Arts curriculum. Here’s a link to my grad project on justifying comics in the school library.

    Hi Terry,
    I really like ReadWriteThink. There are some excellent lesson plans on this site. Have you tried Letter Generator on this site. It’s great.

    The website is http://readwritethink.org/materials/letter_generator/
