Hello everybody! I�ve been surfing the net to find sites related to online reading. I�ve found some nice ones and I�d like to share the information.
Online stories and books:
http://www.starfall.com/ Different level stories ( greek myths, fables, fairy tales) You can listen to some of them while reading . Also fun and useful online activities .
There you�ll find the Peetnick Mysteries, which is a fantastic interactive reading game. Do have a look. it�s great.
Also click on "north star website""( http://www.fablevision.com/northstar/). This is a beauuutiful story everyone of us should read.You can have it in English and Spanish. Highly recommended.
Comics:
http://www.professorgarfield.org/pgf_Intro.html Different activities such us putting the garfield comic strips in the right order ( the reading ring ), videos about drawing cartoons, and even a comic lab you can use to create your own comic strips. Great fun!.
http://www.grammarmancomic.com/comicsgman.html Not only Grammarman comics but also Spectreman and Archie cartoons. You can listen to them or have it as a video. There are a selection of Student�s comics with some excellent works ( e.g Green Town). You can make your own cartoon aswell and send it to be published in the students� gallery and there are links to Drawing Manga ( http://omu.kuiki.net/class.shtml)
Hope you like them! |

That�s great, Stextime! There are so many amazing sites! I feel overwhelmed. The DIY games page will be veeery useful. we are on a Reading Project using computers and interactive exercises. Have you found any cartoon site where you have comprehension questions or strips with no captions? And can anybody recommend any interactive activities generator? Something similar to Hot Potatoes, Ardora or the one used in this very site for online exercises. Thanks again. |
