Search apps & websites for education

Teachers/parents: do you ever wonder what free apps or websites there are for your students/children? Have you heard people talk about their favorite sites, but can't remember what they were?
Graphite is the perfect place to start your search! Common Sense Media has gathered teachers from all over the nation to review and rate learning technologies. Here is what Common Sense writes about the review and rate process: "Graphite's unbiased ratings and reviews are conducted by expert reviewers and are not influenced by the developers of the products or by our funders. We never receive payments or other consideration for reviewing any product".
You can also filter by grade level, subject and price. What's not to love?
If you find a new technology on Graphite, but are not sure how to use it in your classroom stop by and I will be more than happy to collaborate!
