Thing 6




Write a post for Thing 6 about your video finds. Embed at least one of the videos you selected into your post.


I already had a YouTube account which is great for everyday entertainment; however I wouldn’t feel comfortable using these videos at school for our students due to censorship issues and possible “hidden” content. I would recommend YouTube to teachers who want to share videos with their friends and family outside of school.

Teacher Tube was new to me and I immediately made an account and started searching everywhere. I discovered many excellent resources, especially Teacher Vision, which gave grade appropriate videos by curriculum content area as well. I chose the video above from the Teacher Tube account I created in order to show the students on my campus an introduction about Internet Safety. I suspect my teachers will love this site as much as I have. I will support my teachers by assisting them in using this tool in the support of curriculum and research projects with their classrooms. Great resource for all teachers, parents, students and librarians alike.
