Week 6: Links for Differentiated Instruction

Lit2Go

This is a great site hosted by Florida’s Educational Technology Clearninghouse. The activities are designed for K-12 graders. The files are very easy to download.

Lit2Go is a free online collection of stories and poems in Mp3 (audiobook) format. You can:

Download the files to your Mp3 player and listen on the go,
Listen to the Mp3 files on your computer,
View the text on a webpage and read along as you listen,
Print out the stories and poems to make your own book.

Guide to web publishing

Since Geocities. formerly hosted by Yahoo. is no longer available I have been searching for another option for uploading materials for any level. I found this guide to web publishing.

WebSpawner

This site offers resoures to create your own free web page. Their information states that “WebSpawner's powerful WebPage Builder makes it easy to set up your own website, even for beginners. No programming or HTML skills are needed; if you can fill in a straightforward step-by-step form, you canbuild your own FREE web site.” I have not used it yet: I am eager to find out if it actually works. It may be something fun and new to share with the students and to create new products for differentiated instruction at any level.
