Some of my favorite moments in the classroom are the ones when students are excitedly engaged in a task and they don't even realize they're learning. I recently collaborted on a project with one of the Middle School humanities teachers about the Trujillo regime in the Dominican Repbulic and the murder of the Mirabal sisters by his regime. My favorite overheard conversation happened last week when one of the students was trying to see the issue from the standpoint of the Trujillo government, and she said, "I see why he would think the Mirabals were bad but I hate myself for saying it!" Magic!
So, today's post is a site that I think teachers and students will have fun with. Using the customizable templates on ClassTools.net students or teachers can create online, interactive games for just about any lesson you can think of. One of our Spanish teachers thought the drag and drop Dustbin Game would be a perfect way to practice vocabulary. It would be even better on her SmartBoard!
