Audio Books for Summer Reading

Posted by Barb Rowenhorst  Published in TIE-Reads, Uncategorized

This is a wonderful site for ages 13 on up. It’s great for teens and/or parents as well as any avid reader. Sync will be offering two free downloads each week of top audiobook titles through the summer, starting July 1st. These are great picks, with a range of bestselling and classic authors from James Patterson to Mary Shelley, and a dollop of red-hot titles like The Hunger Games thrown in: http://www.audiofilemagazine.com/sync/info.html

Verizon Thinkfinity’s ReadWriteThink Site has New Design

Posted by Marcia  Published in Learning, TIE-Raves, TIE-Reads, Tech Tools, Uncategorized

If you haven’t been to www.thinkfinity.org recently, you might want to check out one of its content partner sites. ReadWriteThink has gone through a site redesign and I think you will love it. If you search the lessons, you will notice a new little feature where you can now select the state standards for that lesson!! So now each lesson in ReadWriteThink can be quickly aligned to SD Standards. They have a lot of other new features as well, so please visit the website and check it out. I would love to hear your comments about the features you find exciting and useful. Please comment.

NASA Image of the Day

A Chameleon Sky

 
The sands of time are running out for the central star of this the Hourglass Nebula. With its nuclear fuel exhausted, this brief, spectacular, closing phase of a sun-like star's life occurs as its outer layers are ejected and its core becomes a cooling, fading white dwarf. In 1995, astronomers used the Hubble Space Telescope to make a series of images of planetary nebulae, including the one above. Here, delicate rings of colorful glowing gas (nitrogen-red, hydrogen-green, and oxygen-blue) outline the tenuous walls of the 'hourglass.' The unprecedented sharpness of Hubble's images revealed surprising details of the nebula ejection process and may resolve the outstanding mystery of the variety of complex shapes and symmetries of planetary nebulae.
