My first favorite UEN Tool is Illuminations. This is a great tool to use for math. I love how it is tied to the National Core Standards. Illuminations also is a K-12 resource, so if you have students above or below grade level, it is a great tool to use for them. For enrichment I could see my self pulling resources for my high kids, and for intervention I could see my self going back to a lower grade, pulling resources/games for reteaching. I love that it is interactive. What better way to get a struggling student involved in their learning of math skills. This tool is also a great parent resource. I could see myself emailing a link of a weblink or activity for my student to practice at home for homework.
My second favorite UEN Tool is Read, Write, Think. I love that it has lesson plans categorized by grade level. The student interactive look wonderful. I love how it shows examples, and resources to get students excited about the project. It is nice that you can print examples, or just dive right in and get started. The graphic organizer printouts are fun, and new. This would be something my students would enjoy filling out before writing our stories.
My third favorite UEN Tool is EdconEdlink. This is a great tool for teachers, parents, and students. It has lesson plans, interactive tools ,newsletters, links, and even some professional development. This would be useful when teaching economics, and has tools divided up by grade level. You can browse by standard, subject, or grade level. An author or word search is also available. This tool can be used at home by students, and even their parents.
With Web 2.o in mind, I tweeted about some of the UEN Tools I likes. I also liked how the Read, Write, Think presentation was done using Prezi, it was much more fun to view than the EdconEdlink presentation that was done in PowerPoint. I also put 2 of the graphic organizers from Read, Write, Think, and one from Illuminations into my Dropbox, so i cam
