Ability Times a blog for students with disabilities at Tunxis Community College lists some useful apps!  I’m going to be checking a few of these out.  Especially the readers, and organizers and recorders.  It’s always like a treasure hunt.

D and I have been having a great time with our new online Science program.  Supercharged Science.  Nothing like good science to get you fired up!  Love the way you gather a box full of stuff around the house plus a few extras and away you go one fun experiment after another.  Science just makes the whole world light up.
