Thing # 19

So many things to view so little time. I could actually explore these sites all day. I was interested in the following ones: Picnik,Google Earth, Mango and Urbanspoon. Picnik is a great site where you can upload pictures and edit them in many ways. Student would enjoy uploading there photo for any given project and present them any way they wish. The map sites allow you to view locations as if you were there in person. Students may use this site to practice coordinates - North, South, East & West. Mango was another interesting site. It allowed you to learn different languages such as Portuguese, Chinese, Russian and even English for ELL. Mango could be bookmarked on students computer to give them another site to explore during bilingual centers. Urbanspoon is a site that gives you list of restaurant in various areas. It also provides a list of where to get good cheap food. This site is especially useful for me since our family always wants to try something new to eat.
