Links Picnic is an opportunity for us to share things from around the web that help and inspire maths teachers. Here are my picks. Please add yours in the comments section. You can leave a link to your own Links Picnic!
–A nice world clock that can be used between lessons or during registration. It includes world statistics that are continuously updating.
—WiseStamp for an interactive email signature.
–The $2 Interactive Whiteboard. I’m calling this the medi-whiteboard, since I already use mini-whiteboards.
–An article I’m reading by Alfie Kohn about homework, entitled Do Students Really Need Practice Homework?
–Some ideas for displaying student testing data in the classroom. How motivating is this, I wonder?
–I am looking for an app or program that helps me organise my to-do lists over my mac at home, PC at work, and phone (Android). Pocket Informant does look useful, but is just for my phone. Do you have a suggestion?
