Searching through the Integration corner I came across many interesting and useful websites. The first I came across is “Crayola Creativity Central”. The website offers things for parents and educators. This website can be beneficial for pre-k and kindergarten. The website offers coloring pages, Crafts, and games. I like the website also because they have products for educators which is very helpful. Another website I found was “Write me a story” which is very important. Kids are available to express themselves and also improve their reading and writing skills. It’s a simple website that kids could navigate themselves through. I really enjoyed reading some of the stories other children had posted. Children have such an imagination and this website is perfect for children to share their thoughts with others. My favorite website that I found is Kids Bank. That’s website teaches kids about money and everything they would possibly want to know. Most of all why I like the website is because it’s simple and easy to understand. This is a website I would encourage any one to use when teaching a class about money. Throughout the many different websites, I found a few that are very helpful for educators and students.
I think that teaching the children about money is really important, especially with the way the world is now-a-days. The website you found is very interactive and entertaining. I think the students would find this fun as well as informing in the classroom and at home.
ReplyDeleteI really liked the Crayola and Kids Bank websites. They have websites that are interactive and easily navigated by the students. I checked out the Write Me A Story site and liked it. The stories from last week were cute and very imaginative.
ReplyDeleteI agree with both of you. I was very pleased with all of the websites I was looking at. The Write me a story website was really great. The kids bank website is great. It's interesting and points out all the important factors kids can learn now and understand.
ReplyDeleteFinancial literacy is a skill that you are never too young to learn. Having those lessons taught early, and taught frequently, can help better prepare kids to stay out of debt and budget their money effectively when the time comes. So it is very cool that you found a site that can help teach financial literacy.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you leslie. I really liked the website of the Crayola Creativity Center. It had so many resources you could use and so many ideas. It gives kids a lot to do and it also gives parents and educators a lot of feedback, so they could try and many different idea.
ReplyDeleteI think it's very good that there is a website that teaches kids about money. I agree, it's never to early for them to start learning. That website is also interesting and kids would enjoy it I think. Crayola Creativity has a lot of activities perfect for kids.
ReplyDeleteI also think that the Crayola website and the story website would be great resources for the students. They are easy to use and yet still keep the student's attention!
