UCF's Sunlinks
This an amazing group of links about the idea of combining reading, writing and thinking
all into a learning model that is more powerful together than separately.
It's about using the tool that already is there, as foreseen by Dr Seuss...
And I said, "With my net I can get them I bet. I bet, with my net, I can get those Things yet!" --from Cat in the Hat by Dr. Seuss
If you are looking for tools to integrate your projector into class wide activities,
this site is a gold mine!
A TINY SAMPLE of the tools include:
| Games from the makers of Fablevision. | |
| Science related activities to make kids of all ages think. | |
| Learn to play chess. Puzzle of the day with answers. Links to other chess related sites and clubs. | |
| Thinking activities and games for ages 1-5 and 6-9. | |

and on the "viewing" link....
| Links to many resources about picture books and how to begin to develop visual literacy with early learners. | |
