DonorsChoose

DonorsChoose.org is an online charity that makes it easy for anyone to help students in need.

Here's how it works: public school teachers from every corner of America post classroom project requests on DonorsChoose.org. Requests range from pencils for a poetry writing unit, to violins for a school recital, to microscope slides for a biology class.

Then, you can browse project requests and give any amount to the one that inspires you. Once a project reaches its funding goal, we deliver the materials to the school.

You'll get photos of your project taking place, a thank-you letter from the teacher, and a cost report showing how each dollar was spent. If you give over $50, you'll also receive hand-written thank-you letters from the students.

Cookit- Picture Teller

Cookit- Picture Teller
This site is designed to demonstrate how recipes are made, but can easily be adapted to showing science diagrams etc! Consider putting together a short show labeling the different parts of a cell.

This tool allows you to use your own pictures and audio to demonstrate how a recipe is made. A simple zoom tool allows you to focus in on the items in a picture you are talking about, as you outline the ingredients and stages that are important in creating your recipe.

At present, the articles that you make with this tool can only be downloaded and used locally on your own PC or laptop.
