Webkinz in the Classroom


Are your students more interested in their toys and their life outside of school than they are with what you are teaching them?

Watch the faces of your students light up when they see that they can play with their favorite Webkinz pets and learn at the same time.

Your students will be eagerly awaiting the start of every school day when you harness the enthusiasm they have for their toys and turn those toys into learning tools.

This video was made by Kate, a 10 year old, to highlight the uses of Webkinz in school.

The ideas are taken from the book: "Using Webkinz in the Classroom" which is available at http://teachingwithwebkinz.com and http://turningtoysintotools.com
