eTools for Language Teachers: Using Google Apps to Make Interactive Stories I was inspired today by a blogpost I found online written by Jonathan Wylie about “Creating Interactive Choose Your Own (Google) Adventure Stories". I tried to create one on my own with a Google form but had major difficulties. So I wrote up some step-by-step instructions.

Web of Stories Animations of key battles of the American Civil War, Revolutionary War, World War II, WWII If a picture is worth a thousand words, a good animation is worth ten thousand. After reading book after book about the Pacific War and finding only complicated maps with dotted lines and dashed lines crisscrossing the pages, we decided to depict the key naval and land battles using animation technology."You are going to want to share HistoryAnimated.com. The site brings to life those dashed and dotted line maps to depict key naval and land battles." School Library Journal"The site provides a bird's eye view of Japanese and American units as they hopscotch around the great chessboard of the Pacific." World War II Magazine"One of my favorite US history resources.......my students absolutely love the animations complete with their sound effects and marching visuals."

The Teacher's Corner - Lesson Plans, Worksheets and Activities Oddizzi Review for Teachers Oddizzi is a great way to get kids involved in learning about geography, cultural awareness, and global responsibility. Upon creating an account, new users get an introductory webinar session, and the developers are always available for additional support; take full advantage to learn how Oddizzi can work for your classroom. Since Oddizzi is U.K.-based, curriculum mappings are most relevant to U.K. school systems, but take a look at the suggested mapping anyway for some inspiration. Project the map and videos for class discussions. Give kids a narrow focus to encourage them to learn about a particular topic.
