On the wire

This week has started out being a very busy one. Lots of web sites, lots of email and lots of fun…

Here are some of the key sites I have found:

1. Colour scheme designerhttp://colorschemedesigner.com/ this is a great site. This is a web site I will be using with my students. The site allows you to select colours and then do a dark or light layout from these. It has an excellent complimentry colour selection tool that gives you the complimentary colors in their web hexa-decimal values. BRILLIANT! (well done Lee)

2. Animated Science – http://www.animatedscience.co.uk/ this is a neat site full of resources for science and more. Here is an examples link to interactive Orchestra - http://www.animatedscience.co.uk/animations/orchestra/ orchestra.htm Well worth visiting.
