eHow

If you haven't heard about it yet, eHow is a website worth visiting. It has so much useful information that can all be accessed by hovering your pointer on the tab found at the top of the front page, labeled "Discover." Under this tab, you'll find sub-tabs labeled: Home Decor and Repair, Crafts, Food and Drink, Garden, Fashion and Beauty, and Holidays.

This is a great source that students could use to get ideas for class projects. For example, say an eighth grade student is taking a Life Skills class. In the class, there typically is a culinary component. The student could look up a fun, simple recipe on eHow. The student may decide to bake "Santa Hat Strawberry Cupcakes." A picture of these cupcakes is actually currently shown on the front page of eHow.

Say a seventh grade student is taking a craft or art class. The student may want to create something that connects with his or her English Language Arts class. On eHow, there is a page on "How to Illustrate a Poem." The website eHow is a great way to get students using technology to enhance their learning.
