I'll Take Jeopardy Labs for 500!

 Jeopardy Labs Rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Jeopardy Labs is a free web-based tool that allows you to create a customized jeopardy game with the infamous TV show template!

The games you create can be played from any device that has internet access and it's super simple to use. The template is already created for you, so all that's left to do is for you to plug in your questions and the corresponding answers. 

Jeopardy Labs is a great tool that can be integrated into your classrooms a few different ways. For instance, you may want to quiz your students on how much they know about a particular topic to gauge their pre-exisitng knowledge. Or perhaps you want to test their knowledge after teaching a lesson-- either way, it's a fun tool that can be used to engage students in the classroom. 

I think a component that makes Jeopardy Labs such a nice tool is it's customizability. You can play the game in teams, no teams, add music, and really add or takeaway what ever you'd like! 

I also would just like to point out that you don't have to create your own game. If you prefer, you can always search for existing games which you can then play or duplicate and edit yourself. Check it out below! 

I would recommend Jeopardy Labs if you're looking for a budget-friendly way to bring some fun and educational experiences into the classroom. Not to mention, it's great for those classes who just love a good friendly competition!

Aha! Logic Puzzles

Aha! Puzzles Rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ For today's web-based tool, I will be talking about the website called Aha! Puzzles.    I was recently introduced to this website and have just fell in love with it. The website itself is filled with different puzzles and games, but in particular I have a fascination with the logic puzzles.  For those who may be a bit unfamiliar, logic puzzles are simply a style of puzzle that involves the mathematical process of deduction and logical reasoning.  The site is completely free to use and includes a large array of puzzles ranging from very easy to hard puzzles.  What I think sets this website apart from many others is not only their vast options, but also their ranging options in free printable logic puzzles. You can find those linked here! This is such a great tool to implement into classrooms. Not only is it fun for students, but it also helps reinforce the process of elimination and helps them practice the act of logical reasoning. ...

Sora Rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sora is a reading app and website that allows users to read ebooks and listen to audiobooks. Sora is without a doubt, a great tool that educators and students are using more and more! With its incredibly eye-catching design and easy-to-navigate interface, users can quickly find materials of interest. With books organized by themes in colorful ribbons, you can rest assured that students of a range of ages will be able to successfully use and interact with this tool.  Apart form the interface, I really enjoy the wide range of diverse titles available for readers. The collection is well-developed, and you are sure to find titles that meet your needs leisurely and in the classroom as well.

Vooks Rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you are familiar with Sora and Novel Effect, Vooks is like a combination of the two! Vooks is a web-based tool that really brings eBooks to life through beautiful animations, narrated read-alouds, and music and sound effects.  Aside from the variety of books they offer, they also have free recourses for teachers. For starters, they have lesson packs that correspond with the books called teacher support kits, activity and craft videos, and even Zoom backgrounds!  Check out one of their activity and craft videos here! As it pertains to pricing, Vooks is completely free for educators! For families, there is a monthly subscription cost of $4.99.  Vooks is a great way to engage students with a story time! It's also a great way to enhance students' comprehension skills, as the site does offer a range of fun activities that coincide with each book. Vooks has a very clean and simple interface. All of their books are organized into ribbons which mak...
