Technically Teaching (Lynn's Blog)

This blog will address my thoughts about using technology with elementary students. Many elementary teachers are apprehensive to incorporate technology into the curriculum. My goal is to be an instrument of change in that area and to be an encouragement to my fellow Educators as they discover the many benefits of using technology in their classrooms.

Puzzlemaker

This is a great site, I've seen it before, but have forgotten about it. I added it to my Linkin' Log so that I won't soon forget it.

It is a Discovery Channel site, and a good one too!

You can use the Puzzlemaker to make your own crossword puzzles, word searches, cryptograms, even math squares and other math puzzles - all of those things that many of us spend hours trying to make on our own.

On the left side of the page, there is a tab called "Brain Boosters". This is a huge list of word problems that really make you think. It's a big list, there are enough to use a different one every day.
