Symbaloo is a great way of sharing websites with students and teachers. Think of Symbaloo as a visual bookmarking tool – even great for pre-emergent readers, ELL students, and struggling readers alike. Come learn how to create your own Symbaloo webmixes and find great ones to copy and share with your students and staff! Attendees should be able to answer these questions after attending this session: 1. What is Symbaloo and how do I create a webmix? 2. How can a webmix be useful to all of my students, including pre-emergent readers, ELL students, and struggling readers? 3. Where can find pre-made webmixes and make them my own to edit and add to?

1. Symbaloo and You!
A Winning Combination!
