Rollyo

Rollyo is a great tool for teachers and librarians! Using Rollyo, I was able to create a search tool for an upcoming project for 5th grade students on important battles of the American Revolutionary War. I liked the way you can choose specific websites for students to search through when they are working on a topic such as the battles of the American Revolutionary War. This is especially helpful in the younger grades, where students are just learning to filter out what sites are junk and what sites are credible and also what sites are more focused on the specific topic they are researching. It also helps you guide students to sites that are appropriate and helpful for various learning styles
