Thing 17

I could have used Rollyo in April when we were studying Australian animals! Oh how I need to go back in time, but I cannot WAIT to use this tool this year.

With my students being so young, it is difficult for them to do web research. First, I don't want them navigating the web by themselves and second, it is difficult for them to read/skim quickly and determine important/credible sites. This tool will help us so much. In fact, I remember thinking what a great idea it would be to narrow search sites to ones I had chosen. If I had only known...

I created a searchroll for my students to use to learn about Australian animals. I know this is a tool I will continue to use and tell my colleagues about. I enjoyed "exploring" the searchrolls already created and saved one about children's books. Can't wait to save and create more!
