Michael Boddy This is a new website by the people who do the Kiwi Quiz - a great alternative to the 'Stuff' website for current events. Students can even become reporters. Check it our here: []

Martin Vickerman Explore Google Docs - Including Forms - can be used to collect information, record progress form projects, quizzes, tests etc - easy to make - single response - multiple choice, long answers, short answers, checkboxes. Responses can be viewed live in a spreadsheet, can be sorted for easy analysis.

[|http://www.childrenslibrary.org] FREE!!!! Real books in many different languages (including 8 in Te Reo Maori :) ) Can search by age group, fiction/non fiction, genre and, if you sign up (for free) you can store favourites on your own "bookshelf".

Another FREE site [|http://computerflashcards.com] Make flash card quizzes in various formats - can include pictures too. Owners can edit cards so kids can make theire own, have them trialled by a buddy and revised as necessary before making them public.

Fun quiz about chatroom safety - [] From a (British) site that is aimed at secondary level - but could be good for help us as teachers improve our own understanding, and have some fun at the same time.
