This website is an interactive story book. This website has all the letters of the alphabet and allows you to click on them and they show you a animal that starts with that letter that you would see in a zoo. For example, B for a Bear. It is great for kindergarden students because it shows them the letter and an animal that they can learn by that letter. It also keeps the children's attention. This website could be used in the classroom to let the children another option for practicing their alphabet. In my opinion, this website's goal is to help students learn the alphabet in a fun and constructive way.

This website shows you in four levels how to read. The first level allows you to hear the sound of every letter in the alphabet, second level teaches you how to read, third level gives you games to play to be able to read, and fourth level gives you different types of literature to read. In today's classroom most of the students are all at different types of learning levels, if you have a student that is having a hard time reading then you could have them use this to help them. In my opinion, the website's main goal is to help students who need extra help with reading use this as a tool to help them.

This website allows the student to make an interactive book online. It allows the student to pick characters, the setting, and what things will be used in the story. If I was teaching in a classroom setting now, I would allow my students to play this game, because it lets them create their own personal story. Every student is different from one another and this lets the student use their imagination. I think this website would be very useful in the classroom if the student had finished their work and needed something constructive to do in their free time. In my opinion, this website's goal is to allow the student to create their own story and put their own personal flare on creating their own online story.

This website is an interactive site about Aesop's Fables. This university has put Aesop's Fables online to view interactively. They put these online so students could view them using a computer and all of his fables are available on this website. I believe if you were teaching a lesson about Aesop's Fables this website could be very helpful and it gives the students a different view of the fable besides from a book. In my opinion, this website's goal is to give students a different view of the fables.

This website is all about story starters for students. The first thing the student will do is pick a setting that they want to write about, then they will click on that picture, and then it will give them a story starter for them to start writing their story. This can be used in the classroom if a student has a difficult time coming up with an idea to write a story about. It offers many different settings for their creativity to begin flowing. In my opinion, this website's main goal is to give students different ideas to write about and to get them thinking outside of their normal thinking.

This website is a fun game for students grades 2-5. It gives the student a word, then the student will try to come up with as many words as they can out of the word given to them. This website allows the student to think about how to spell other words. It also makes the student use their brain. In my observations in my education classes, I have saw students do this for fun in their spare time. In my opinion, this website is teaching the student to use a computer, learning, and having fun all at the same time. :)

Zoom Playhouse is a feature on the PBS Kids website that allows children to go there and choose a play to act out. They provide how many characters are needed, what props that the children need, and what kind of costumes they need. This website can be very helpful in the classroom, because allowing children put on plays gives them self confidence, public speaking skills, interaction with other students, and memorization. In my opinion, the main goal of the website is to teach children not to have stage fright, work together as a group, and how the organization of a play is.
