New Recommeded Site- Harveys Homepage

So today I met Harvey Almorode who is an educational consultant for SMART in the US. He has created all  his own content and posted it on his site. It is phenomenal content, and he is willing to share. Harvey is big into Brain Based learning and encourages knowledge of that into his lessons. I posted his site in my favorite links section. Check out function man on the link below. You can use it for functions, predicting or change it for ELA. One lady shared that she put an English word in one side and the French word comes out the other. Take this activity and tinker with it to make it your own. Enjoy.Harvey's Homepage
