Thing #20

I have used TeacherTube in the classroom and the kids love it b/c they equate it with YouTube. This video on the water cycle is hilarious, but I love finding things like this to use. he kids love it and what's wrong with laughing while you're learning? That makes the ideas stick with the kids more b/c they can't stop talking about it or wanting to share it with others.

  1. forget the kids...it makes the water cycle palatable for grownups...I will never hear "I will survive" again without remembering the water cycle. How clever is that...thanks for finding and sharing it with us
    it IS so fun playing and learning, isn't it?

  3. I'm impressed . . . I am not familiar with Teacher Tube. Loved this video on the water cycle. I know our kids enjoyed it - I certainly did. This is a great classroom tool!
