This week I have been looking at different websites based on my content area, which is history. I found three different sources that were really interesting to look at. The best one I found was www.besthistorysites.net. They provide all kinds of sites that give lesson plans, activities, games and much more. I really think this site would be useful to any social studies teacher because it has such a wide variety of options for lessons. I added this site to our course wiki and I really think that it will be a useful one.
I believe that wikis were very interesting to learn about. I had never really knew what a wiki was other than Wikipedia. As far as integrating technology, I think it will be a very source for teachers to use. I would really be interested in this as a future teacher just like the PLNs. I think it is important for teachers to have as many resources to their disposal as possible. I am looking forward to using this more as a tool for future lesson planning.

My Wiki for social studies has also been a very useful source for teaching materials and relevant websites. I don't think www.besthistorysites.net was included, so I'll be sure to check it out too!
