Tool 5: Tagging and Social Bookmarking

I joined Diigo at http://www.diigo.com/

The websites that I bookmarked are:
http://edhelper.com/K3Themes.htm
http://prekinders.com/
http://www.kidsparkz.com/preschoolthemeunits.html/
http://atozteacherstuff.com/Themes/Space/
http://www.pre-kpages.com/

Tags that I used were: Pre-K, Pre-K Themes, Pre-K Thematic Units, & Pre-K Curriculum.

For older students I think that Social Bookmarking can be very useful. This should help students to remember the sights they have bookmarked and should ensure that they would be less likely to loose them. I am not sure how my Pre-K Students would be able to use Social Bookmarking at age 4 though. I can see how I could bookmark sights for them to use and set them up in a folder or a list that they could click on and utilize at the computer. I find Diigo really useful because teachers and students can move from one computer to another and still have access to all their bookmarks. This sight will allow teachers to share collections of bookmarks they have found with their students as well their colleagues.
