WEBSITE EVALUATIONS
I chose three different educational websites to evaluate.
The first one I chose was ABCya. I think that this website could be very beneficial to students in my classroom because it makes learning fun and the games on the website make you think about what you are doing. I would put this under the Understanding tab on my chart.
The second website I chose to evaluate is FunBrain I did not really enjoy this it did not really give grade level work, all the K-5 work was put together...why would a kindergartner want to work on a 5th grade level if they were not considered gifted? I would put this under my Creating Tab.
The third app I chose to evaluate is Math Blaster. This app is an edutainment game that helps student recall their math facts that they have been learning in class. This app requires a higher order of thinking which is great for kids because it helps expand their knowledge.

WEBSITE EVALUATIONS
I think that this website would be a great use for my classroom. There is plenty of items for my children to do and learn about the different animals that we can implement into our science lessons. Unfortunately I did not see an authors and a way to contact the website. I love the design and how colorful it is for children. There is many different types of curriculum for students to work on anything from science to social studies! The information looks to be up to date.
I feel like the website can definitely help in my classroom. I love how this website has a purpose for helping my children succeed in the classroom. Unfortunately I do not see an author for this website. I feel like the website also has content related to different topics that I would be able to teach with. I feel like the information on this website would definitely challenge my students in the classroom. This website loads well and it is easy to navigate.
