Looking for some zinger commercial clips to analyse in class?? Check
out Gorgeous.co.uk – a site sent to me by my Fishin’ Pal, Bob.? Join
Frank, Peter, Ben, Chris and Tom will show off their favorites.? Will
require QT or WMP and I noticed that it didn’t run very well on OS X’s
Safari, so you might have to pull out the old Explorer icon!

My friend, John McQuay, has compiled a handy list of sites that are
useful for teachers.? These web pages have been organized to be a quick
find for teachers looking to find websites to assist them in teaching a
specific concept or idea.

List member, Linda Melnyk, wrote in about Brain Basher, a unique
collection of puzzles, games and optical illusions. Teachers and
students will find thousands of puzzles which are regularly updated
with illusions and games and has 5 new puzzles added each week.

Thanks to Bryan Evans for this gem on bridges:
“If you have not already seen this site it is kinda fun for Grade 3
bridge
building, although it is recommended for Grade 5 and up.? They are
working
to build the new bridge across the Oakland Bay in San Francisco and
this is
excellent for kids to see bridge building and design and meet the
workers
and learn about the jobs they do at the site.”
