[IAEP] Ideas

[Caroline Meeks]

Hi Patricia,

I have had requests for a few things over the years.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuisenaire_rods - these are popular
math manipulative and an online version would be cool.

A book creation tool that allowed children to create their own illustrated
book then printed it out in such a way that it could be easily folded into a
book.  Here is a page on how to print to fold into a book:

Far more involved is writing programs that help support "RTI" which is a
process of repeated short probes, then targeted practice in the areas
determined by the probes, then reevaluation.  Let me know if that is the
level you want to work at, its a lot more involved the then other two ideas.

Thanks!
Caroline
