Have you heard of Tizmos? With our new laptops we can't book mark internet browsers... Well we can, but the student has to log on the the same computer each time in order for them to access the saved books marks. So come in stage right, www.tizmos.com! What I do is book mark each computer under their student login with one website I made with all the websites they can use...
What you see when you look at the website is....
Well, I am huge into technology, and so are my kiddos so I use TIZMOS! It's a free kid and teacher friend website that you can add the screen shot of your favorite websites to. Great for Kinders!!!
In the computer lab they all log on the same computer each time, so I went around once and added the tizmos site I made, and just called it Schultz. (My last name). The even put a cute little apple there for you too! :)
They click on Schultz and their choices are all there at their fingertips. Usually I say "Okay, first 10 min. go on this...." etc.
Here is a great tutorial on how to use it! It's totally free, as long as you do not want the extra's. So I do not pay anything for my current Tizmo's site. I have kiddos come back from school saying "Mrs. Schultz I went on Tizmo's last night and played money bingo!!"
This sounds like a very useful tool! Thanks for sharing!
