As I am working on some finishing touches on my WebQuest, I am also learning about several online writing tools. These tools will work for most students in the classroom setting.
Two tools I used are located at ReadWriteThink.org. ReadWriteThink.org blew me away with all of their interactive writing tools. Students can organize their thoughts in fun ways using these tools.
The first one is the Cube Creator. I created a worksheet for students to fill out regarding the information they discovered during their Pi Day WebQuest.
The second one I wanted to include with my WebQuest was a Timeline for students to answer their question about who discovered pi more in depth.
I will be using ReadThinkWrite.org for many more projects in the future.
I wanted to use an online tool called Kerpoof; however, it has been discontinued. I did a quick search for similar online tools and found Story Bird. I created a poem relating to my Pi Day WebQuest.

You will also notice that I used Voki to create an animated and audio introduction to my WebQuest. This fun tool will help visual students to see a cartoon of me giving an introduction to the WebQuest.
I also discovered that Kerpoof was gone! Lol. And I did some looking around with ReadThinkWrite.org also and it looks like it is full of great tools!
