ESU 16 has signed its schools up for a subscription to a wonderful new resource, http://www.visualthesaurus.com.
The site is difficult to describe- it's a dynamic combination of blogs, word maps, "Word of the Day," teacher topics, lesson plans, headlines and much, much more. As long as you are using the site on the school network, you will not need to log into the web page. If you- or your students- need to use the site from home, please contact Susan Krab to see about setting up an account.
If you love words and language, you owe it to yourself to take a moment and check out this website!
