graphite.org -- Teacher Rated Resources, Apps, Websites, and more

Hello all!  I thought I'd try this out with my very first blog post (ever!).

My favorite take-away from ICE this year was a website called Graphite (graphite.org).  This site makes finding quality tech resources easy.  You can search by topic, type, price, purpose, etc. and it returns a list of tested and approved results, hopefully saving us from trying terrible apps and websites.  They have a list of top picks for each category, offer lesson plans incorporating these resources, and can link everything to CCSS (if you're into that).  There's also a Blog and you can set up a "board" of your favorite sites/tools (think Pinterest meets Symbaloo).

I'm still learning the site myself, but I hope you like it as much as I do.  :)  Peace, Kiera (MEES, 2nd Dual English)

  2. I really like how there is a rating on Graphite for each option that you may have searched, as well. That helps me with what I may want to spend my time on investigating. Thank you for this great resource! It helps us when we are feeling overwhelmed and we do not know where to start! Very useful!!
