Discover Discovery Education

Have you spent some time lately @ Discovery Education's Web site?

I'm sure you are all familiar with the wonderful educational videos offered through Discovery Streaming.  But, do you know what else is available through their site?

One really neat area on Discovery Education is the Writing Prompts Builder.  Access thousands of writing prompts submitted by other DE users or create your own using images or videos from DE's library.

This is an example of a writing prompt posted by a DE User:

These are also a great way to teach character education topics.

You can access the Writing Prompt area on DE by visiting http://www.discoveryeducation.com/ and login.  (If you have not ever created an account, you will need your school's passcode--see your media specialist or email me!)  You should see the Writing Prompt Builder under My Builder Tools once you login.  There is even a pdf QuickStart Guide to help you get started!
