Internet Tool#2: Read, Write, Think


 

ReadWriteThink is a website which has many types of resources both for teachers and learners. This interactive resource site allows the students to independently complete the interactive tools; whether it be a timeline or bio cube. This tool allows students the freedom to enter and edit information in an interactive format making the students more apt and excited about using the resources. The tools within the site, seem to be specifically created to adapt to lessons teachers often implement. The site has updated several of the tools that are often used with students for ease in use and better application. The site includes lesson plans, worksheets, categorized links to communication, searchable content, and more. The site also has a video section where both teachers and students can find literacy resource which are fun and educational. There is so much information included on this website that it is a little overwhelming, but for a free resource there is so much potential for learning and inclusion.

ReadWriteThink is a wonderful website that can entertain both students and teachers.  The collection of materials and interactive books and activities is plenty and everything has been filtered out by experts in the educational field.  This is a wonderful website and should be used by both young learners and educators.
