Photopeach: http://photopeach.com/ Create an interactive slideshow with embedded quizes. You can also add your own music and text. Great tool for reviewing information and checking student understanding.
Did You Know?
You can find student IDs and Blackboard logins in PowerTeacher? At your start page, click on the student backpack. Click on a student's last name. In the upper right-hand corner, choose the screen "demographics." Scroll down and you'll see "ACPSAAA Link." The information to the right of that is the student's login and password information.
Lesson Idea
Ask Ms. Miller and Mr. Vega about Mystery Calls in their 6th grade Social Studies class. Higher Order Thinking has never looked the same with students video conferencing with students across the nation, guessing their location. Suddenly geography skills are relevant!
