Great Resource Reminder!

I know I posted about this last school year, but I wanted to put this back on everyone's mind. It's called NBC Learn. It is a GREAT research tool! The videos are on various topics and are searchable. There are also transcripts for each video. These videos will take you all over the world! 

Students, Be sure to check out the section titled Writer's Speak. This section features some of your favorite authors talking about their books and the writing process they go through. There's also a section that features videos about common grammatical errors and how to avoid them. How cool! There is also a huge selection of science and social studies videos. Have fun!

Parents and teachers, You can sign up for your own account and create a favorites list for your favorite videos. These videos can then be shared with others. I can see how our teachers can use these to enhance an IB unit of inquiry! Wow! You can also sign up for a weekly email with new information they add each week. 

I'll add the link to the links section on the right, but here it is now: http://archives.nbclearn.com/portal/site/k-12
