I visited several of Nik Peachey’s blogs which contains many useful sites for teachers. One site I visited was bookr. This site allows users to create book online books. You can search for premade books. (I like the animal books, they have great visuals and are kid friendly). One downfall is images can only be used from flickr.
Another site related to bookr is bubblr. This site is similar to bookr. Images from flickr can be used and speech and thought bubbles can be added. With a focus on text features this is a creative way to teach about speech bubbles. I think ELL students would enjoy making their own captions to unique pictures.
The last site I visited was Xtranormal. I found this site interesting. This site allows you to make movies using animated characters. I had a difficult time creating a movie. I would like to explore this site more and try to make a movie for my students. I can see myself using it to teach students manners.
