Write me a Story

Write me a story. The website KidsCom - Create - Write me a story is a great website that provides students with the ability to be creative when they write. Students can learn to write correctly and they can even get a chance to publish their writings on the internet.

This is how the site works:

·         Each week we'll challenge you to write a story using the character, place and prop we give you. Your story can be as funny, sad or silly as you want, but nothing your parents would get mad about. (Speaking of parents, you should get their OK before sending your story to us because many people around the world might be reading your stunning work.)

·         Each week we randomly select five stories by kids 11 and younger and five by kids 12 and older to put in the Ballot Box. That's where all KidsCom Kids can vote for their favorite story of the week. The two stories with the most votes in each age group will be showcased in Stunningly Stupendous Stories the next week!

It also is a safe and secure site making comments such as “Don't forget: for safety's sake leave out personal information like your last name, phone number, e-mail or home address in your story.”
When it comes to critical thinking skills there is a section called “Take the write me challenge”
This website is great and I would definitely suggest it to any teacher, student, or parent interested in learning ways to write.

Website dedicated to Special Needs students

While blogging this time I decided to concentrate on an area that gets very little attention or credit where it is due. When dealing with special needs children a lot of attention and patience is needed and that is why I chose this website http://www.teachersnetwork.org/impactII/profiles03_04/mcnamara.htm

This website was created for people who need help when trying to figure out how to deal with a special need child whether it is a child or teacher. The site is constructed in a way that can help not only teachers but the student and parents as well. It is an impact service rendered to the services of teachers and administrators on how to develop the skills needed to provide a special needs child with the atmosphere he or she needs to get a respectable education. Special needs could mean anything from learning disability to physical ailment that requires full time attention and supervision. Actually my sister is an aid for a blind student at the school where she works and she has to type all of her text books into brail in order for her to be able to read. She requires full time supervision. This website can be very helpful to those in need of the training that is required or suggested even to care for special need students.
