Lesson 2
I think the Learning Express Library is amazing. I wish I would have had something like this when I was taking the ACT and Praxis tests. I decided to try the 4th grade reading test. The layout was great and I liked that I got results right away. I also think its great that you can stop and it saves it so you can go back and continue at a later time.
Next I moved onto the Job Search and Workplace Skills, I looked over the course entitled "Choosing the Right Words." I really like how this class was set up, with a short introduction followed by more in depth information. I like the idea of being quizzed over each small topic before moving on to the next one. I also thought the course outline was helpful because you may want to skip skills you already know and move on to ones you need more help with.
For my ebook search I found an ebook called Becoming a Teacher. It was easy to read and laid out nicely.
Great resource!!!

Lesson 1c
World Book Foreign Language Edition
The visual dictionary is really neat. I can use this source when we are discussing different cultures in my classroom. If I had a spanish/french speaking student in my class this would be a great resource for that student to use to explain themselves to other students. This feature could also be used to teach another language to students. The read-aloud feature could be used in the same way, to help ESL students excel or to teach English language students another language.

World Book Kids Online
There are two kinds of elephants. African elephants live only in Africa. Asian elephants, also known as Indian elephants, live in India and Southeast Asia. An elephant lives about 65 years.
World Book Online Info Finder
When searching the same mammal I found that Info Finder had a lot more information than Kids Online. Info finder went into details about the kinds of elephants, the body parts, and how to protect them.
World Book Online Reference Center
Reference Center is equivalent to World Book Advanced. Again I would mostly likely use the pictures, videos and animations for my first grade students. I did find some websites that would hold me students interest as well.
