Inauguration Day Resources

14 Jan 2009 @ 07:57 am · 1 Comment ·

Hi again everyone,

I was going to blog this list of resources today but forgot and just published my post onMyths and Legends Story Creator 2, D’OH! So here it is anyay for your educational enjoyment.

I am NOT a fan of “here are a thousand links, find one you like” but I pulled together this selected collection of links from a variety of places including my Google Certified Teacher network, Twitter and others. One thing to note: most people are saying the Internet is likely to slow to a crawl on Inauguration Day due to worldwide demand, so, if you can, plan on using on the good ol’ TV for lesson-critical activities. Otherwise, good luck with these resources! -kj-

    Thanks for the well developed list. I’m going to blog about it on my blog today for my teachers. We are all at home today due to below zero temperatures. No students=more blogging time.
