We learned so much and had a great time too!
In the exhibitor hall, I came across the booth for the website http://www.facts4me.com and was immediately impressed. Facts 4 Me didn't ask me to blog about them. They didn't give me a free membership. I'm just an educator impressed with this website and really wanting you to check it out!
Facts 4 Me is an AMAZING science and social studies resource with LOADS of topics that you can either display for your students, print for informational reading, or assign students to read and research. I LOVE that it is easy to navigate, includes colorful pictures, and the texts is written with easy readability while still containing important facts for students.
The past 4 years while I was teaching in 3rd grade, we did a Wax Museum project and this would have been the PERFECT resource. One of the things I appreciate the most is that there are NO external links. This site is secure and safe for our little learners.
But, here's the best part (well, 2nd best part... well, 3rd best)... You can purchase an ENTIRE SCHOOL LICENSE for ONLY $50! And, for $150, you get 24/7 access for your ENTIRE school building. That is what blew my mind!
Ok- 2nd best part... From now until April 21, these ladies are giving every FREE ACCESS if go to the website (http://www.facts4me.com) and use the username and password on the image below. Please do yourself a favor and check out this site. You will NOT be disappointed!
And, the FIRST BEST PART... they are going to giveaway a subscription to one of you!!!! It's easy to enter. All you have to do is check out the website and come back and let me know one topic you are excited to see! You can earn an extra entry if you follow my blog too. I'll announce the winner on my blog next week!
