I followed Hooda Math blog. On this blog the author posted math games, and some of the games were directly related to the standards. Other games were simply brainteaser type activities. All of the games were very engrossing, and I found myself playing the games for longer than I originally planned. This past week he posted a shopping game. This would be very motivational for middle school and high school students. The site also provides math problems, strategies, and downloadable worksheets. He provides links to classroom and projector tools and online activities. There are math lessons plans posted under the categories.

Free Technology for Teachers blog provided unlimited technology tools for teachers. Every posting was loaded with links that tied into my curriculum. The blog has numerous online resources. While following this blog, I was able to incorporate the WW2 Google Earth activity and to share the tools with other teachers at West Lyon. One Sunday the author posted ten educational science games and videos. The games range from Earth Day games to NASA games from kindergarten through seniors. He also includes a week in review to sum up the favorite posts of the week. This is the site I will continue to follow and utilize weekly. Every posting provided a wealth of tools and with all of the searching I did on the blog, there is still more to find! It was one of the most useful tools I have found using the Internet.
