4 BP4_2009121_Tool#1(Kidyos and Games Classroom)
I would like to take this opportunity to thank my instructor, Rena Hanaway for this assignment. For if it wasn’t for this assignment, I would not have come across these wonderful web 2.0 sites for children. As a Kindergarten teacher, I am always on the lookout for wholesome and safe websites to use with my students. I love technology in the classroom but with so much junk out there, it can become hard to find fun and educational online games and videos for this very young age group. I loved the Kidyos site because it has been screened and certified safe. As I explored the site, I immediately added it to my list of site to make available to both my students and my 4 year old daughter. I have already signed her up for it. I will use the site during literacy workstation as one of my computer approved sites for the kids to visit. I also explored the Games Classroom website. I liked the site as well and will use it again for both my students and my daughter. The games on this site are very educational. There are estimating and comparison games, both are some of the objectives we teach in math. I can do a lot with these sites. I am so excited and I know my children will love watching the videos and playing the games on these sites.
These are truly great web destinations for accessing high-quality educational videos and games for children.

This is an interesting site for me- one that kids can access without fear of it being unwholesome for them. from the pics of the site i find it attractive and believe kids will like it also.
