In the game, you’re shown the lead paragraph, but letters from two words in the headline are missing. Players have to use clues in the first paragraph to identify what the missing words should be. As you play the online version, you can ask for clues. One of the great things about using this game is that students can create their own with pen and paper and have classmates try to figure out the answers, as well as giving them clues if needed.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0OusNP6E-MO4167xvQMCJO-nl4NWAVLM0tNERmerQLkjVL_iO4mYaVubt8ZjW-UQf2sdZuwXpMeD_nfiIsSeXeH-3eq41_er_Zmn7kIfJxFzTBPv-H8bnQkxlviUVKGelXQ4yjWy0K3pK/s1600/learn-english-wordmaster-200X200.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 116px; height: 116px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0OusNP6E-MO4167xvQMCJO-nl4NWAVLM0tNERmerQLkjVL_iO4mYaVubt8ZjW-UQf2sdZuwXpMeD_nfiIsSeXeH-3eq41_er_Zmn7kIfJxFzTBPv-H8bnQkxlviUVKGelXQ4yjWy0K3pK/s400/learn-english-wordmaster-200X200.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5581331600439418466" /></a><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/learningenglish/flash/wordmaster/">Wordmaster</a></span> is from the BBC.

If you choose the correct definition of the word, the next word you’re given is “harder.” If you answer incorrectly, the next word is supposed to be “easier.” In addition, for every word you get correct, ten grains of rice are donated to an international aid agency. A year-and-a-half ago, the BBC published a story quoting United Nations’ officials as saying the game has generated enough funds to feed 50,000 for a day at that time. Free Rice recently expanded its game and now has questions related to grammar, geography, art, foreign language and math, too (Yes, I know, this doesn’t teach the words in context, but because they have questions in all the categories, it’s so fun, and it’s for a good cause, are all reasons why I added it to this list.Christinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13537163660639874277noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5557354571073844750.post-50924085177940699152011-01-06T21:51:00.000-08:002011-01-06T22:25:19.743-08:00California State Symbols<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicBuhSx84zIppqOi2elwoKlexQLc29e0HT4_fadHGdjBn3Y_VUn2DODvx4B6xcIfkC0zjoplEFmySIToXkBWbQZh9i3ydXlzaQWdCZf2LLLzdaEiLqP5f4FocIN-E0am23QIqD0X31xwO5/s1600/ca_quarter.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 292px; height: 297px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicBuhSx84zIppqOi2elwoKlexQLc29e0HT4_fadHGdjBn3Y_VUn2DODvx4B6xcIfkC0zjoplEFmySIToXkBWbQZh9i3ydXlzaQWdCZf2LLLzdaEiLqP5f4FocIN-E0am23QIqD0X31xwO5/s320/ca_quarter.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5559326057810572162" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqMEjbKKm1h3rdDEcEU3KOPnYnzLqh9TdE7ALoNkQoHj2RpxsG2LSy0nEcKgu7SoLPgZjy5EZksA9v8VqIggwNfO7CyV_7p-HmKynbgBsQW1X0Uo4gU49uyMduOmPHeeN6IOzrLVvm_e8_/s1600/californiaflag.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqMEjbKKm1h3rdDEcEU3KOPnYnzLqh9TdE7ALoNkQoHj2RpxsG2LSy0nEcKgu7SoLPgZjy5EZksA9v8VqIggwNfO7CyV_7p-HmKynbgBsQW1X0Uo4gU49uyMduOmPHeeN6IOzrLVvm_e8_/s320/californiaflag.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5559325966354815698" /></a><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Click on this link below to take a quiz on facts about California</span>:<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><a href="http://homeschooling.about.com/cs/quizcentral/l/blquizcalif.htm">http://homeschooling.about.com/cs/quizcentral/l/blquizcalif.htm</a></span><br /><br />To review for the quiz before you take it...read the information below:<br />State Name: California<br />State Nickname: The Golden State<br /><br />State Capital: Sacramento<br />State Governor: Jerry Brown<br />State Abbreviation: Calif.<br /><br />2 letter Postal Code: CA<br />Area: 158,693 square miles<br />Date Entered the Union: Sept. 9, 1850<br /><br />State #: 31<br />Borders: Oregon, Nevada, Arizona, Pacific Ocean<br /><br />Flag Meaning: California became a Republic, independent from Mexico, on June 14, 1846.

What are some reading strategies that you would have to teach them so they could be successful reading a graphic novel?<br /><br />2) Graphic novels can be used to help understand the mythical struggle of a "Hero's Journey". What character (do not pick Chirhiro) from a graphic novel that you have read goes through a "Hero's Journey"? What happened to them in their journey?<br /><br />3) If we were to create a class graphic novel using the Greek Myths for our story line- which greek myth would you like us to make into a graphic novel?
