 * Angela’s Web 2.0 Tools**

//Here are some great tools I found that you could use in your classroom and that I would use to enhance my own lesson plan.//

__Animoto__ [|__http://animoto.com/__]

Animoto is a website that enables students to create short videos of anything they want. They are able to add sound, pictures, and text to the video so that it is more presentable. This tool is great for students who excel at the arts and are tech savvy. Most students now and days use technology on a daily basis so for them to be able to bring their notes and ideas to life keeps them interested in what they are learning. I would incorporate this into my lesson by having the students create a short video of what they learned during class. They could use this as a presentation tool when they are presenting to the class and give the students a visual aid.

__Timeline__ http://www.preceden.com/

This tool would be great in my social studies classroom. The students can use it to create a timeline for that they have been learning. For each new thing they learn they just add it to the timeline. This tool would keep the students on track with the French Revolution. I would encourage the students to keep adding dates as the lessons progress so that way they have a reference for when they are studying. Starting them off within the first lesson will ensure that they start from the beginning and continue onward.
