Other considerations when using t
his resource
If you are going to use this website in the classroom,
there has to be at least one computer. It would be great if every pupil could
have their own computer. Then everyone could try out different activities and
choose games of interest. The website also has a youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/user/BritishCouncilLEKids.

Here are some of the videos and songs you can find on the original website.
Good to know is that the website takes internet safety very seriously. It is
not possible for the children to send private messages to each other, and
children and adults cannot write to each other. Over all this is a very
innovative and fun website for children, especially in the lower grades.

After reading this blog post I decided to go take a look around on the website. I found it very useful and informative. I loved how colorful and fun it looked. I was glad you mentioned that in your post because I don't think I would have noticed it if you didn't mention it. Your post was very easy to follow with the bold headings for each subject. I like the section about how teachers can use the website because that is what I am most interested in. It was really useful that you directed us on how to become members. Even after looking at the website myself I did not know that you had to become a member in order to use this website to it's full potential.
ReplyDeleteWhen I first read the blog post I thought you entered a lot of information about what the pupils could do on the website. After looking around the website I would have loved if you included what kind of activities were available for the students.
This blog post was very interesting and I learned a lot from it. It really got my attention and made me want to look at the website in detail. I am glad you chose this website because it is very useful for future teachers. It is really easy to access and use even if you not familiar with a lot of technology. This means that it can be used by most age groups in school.
Thanks for the great website! I will definitely be using it in my classroom.
