1. I looked at both the French and Spanish site. As we have a few Spanish speaking kids in school, using the Spanish site would be more useful in our school. But I can see if students wanted to explore are their own, either site would be fun for them to explore.
It could be used in our PAWS program (after school program) as an alternative to playing games on the computer. Students could make their own Spanish or French Dictionary, using images from the site and adding the correct terminology. I also like that even though it is a Spanish site, the site can easily be changed from Spanish to English and back again. Also there is the read aloud feature :)
2. I listened to an article about the Grand Canyon. As I can't speak Spanish, I found it frustrating. Not sure how I could use it with K-4, but if someone has any ideas; I certainly would try.
Thanks for your comments! You have lots of good ideas for how to use this, even if not with your own students. Thanks for giving it a try!
