I've noticed a few schools are using Evernote with students. Wondering how this compares to Livebinders.

You can also check out my blog http://web20classroom.blogspot.com

I also love the fact that you can add collaborators to livebinders, so several people can add to one Live Binder.

I am going to have so much fun this summer creating livebinders for different lessons. So much easier and better than having individual links on a flashdrive

Luckily (thus eliminating some of those undesirable behaviors a sub can encounter) as a substitute teacher I had the opportunity to celebrate "Kindness Week" with our school district. I must recommend the book, The 7 Habits of Happy Kids of course inspired by the adult "Seven Habits of Highly Effective People". It is designed for the K to 3 teacher and includes a teacher guide at the end of each story.

This particular school has adopted the program and implemented in all classes.

Question: Our Grade 6's wanted to create a webpage to showcase some of their creative writing. Does anyone know of a web program that is approved by the Board and is user friendly that I could try?
"With wikispaces.com you can set up a site for your class and give each student a page where they can post their work. There are free accounts for educators, students don't need email addresses to sign up, and you can store up to 2 GB of data. You can even set up discussions on each page. I've used it in the past as an online portfolio for my grade 4/5 students."
