Here is a really cool and easy to use site to create your very own movie posters. There is an easy to use form that you fill in with your title, tags and even a space for the credits. You can also upload your own picture and then a realistic movie poster is created in minutes. The file can then be saved and you can print or even order the movie poster. A really cool thing about this site is that if you use your own picture you can even get a hi-resolution version that you can use to print out from any retailer. They don't force you to order from them. I was able to explore the movie poster section but with a quick glance at the rest of the bighugelabs.com site it seems that there are a bunch of cool things to do with your digital pictures like turn your pics into puzzles, magazine covers, pop art. Lots of fun for teachers with a ton of educational possibilities!

Up to Ten - Boowa and Kwala
Up to Ten is an extensive web site with over 1000 educational and fun games for kids up to age 10. Younger kids (0 - 6) can click on the Boowa and Kwala section to access lots of games, activities, songs, stories and colouring pages. It is all very well organized so even younger students can navigate it on their own. Older students (6-10) can access the games section where the selection isn't as extensive but still quite large. This section has classic games, puzzles and coordination games. Another really great thing about this site is that it is completely bilingual: English and French! On the homepage there are three sections (Free, Premium and Teacher). The free section is very abundant and it is not clear how to subscribe to the paying portions but, in my opinion, the free section is so extensive there is no need.
