Prezi
Prezi is a fabulous website for creating engaging presentations. I have seen Prezi used and they grab the attention of audiences because of their unique design and interaction. Prezi would not only be great for teachers to work with but students as well! http://prezi.com/
Kubbu
Because of increased technology in our classrooms, Kubbu is a great resource for teachers to use in order to evaluate their students using quizzes and different activities such as crosswords and word searches. This website is very easy to use. http://kubbu.com/
In my opinion, Pinterest in probably the best resources that teachers can use. It is free to create an account and has numerous ideas and "pins" for everything you can think of. http://pinterest.com/
Spell with Flickr
Spell with Flickr is a fun website to create words using different pictures. It is also very easy to use. All you have to do is type in the word you want and the website creates the image for you! http://metaatem.net/words/
