<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I have recently added a new page to my Web Resource Hoarder's website--</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><a href="http://www.ztlearn.com/museums-monuments-historic-sites" target="_blank">Museums, Monuments & Historic Sites</a></span></div>

<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I have finished most of the Art Museum links. There is a list of 25 of the Top Art Museums Worldwide and a list of the major Art Museums in Ohio. If you are wondering "why Ohio?", it is because there are so many good ones there and also I live there.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">For the Science teacher's I have a list of over 25 of the top Natural History and Science Museums. The institutions included cover, but are not limited to, a variety of subject areas:</span><br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Natural History</li>
<li>Science</li>
<li>Zoology</li>
<li>Botany</li>
<li>Geology</li>
<li>Physics</li>
<li>Astronomy</li>
<li>Archaeology </li>
<li>Physical Anthropology</li>
<li>Genetics</li>
<li>And of course every elementary student's favorite-- Dinosaurs!!</li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Remember as with all of my web pages I have a few requests:</span></div>
<div>
<ol style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Please share the links with your students, fellow teachers, colleagues, family and friends.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">If you find a bad please email me so I can fix it.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">If you have a favorite website that is not listed please send me information so I can consider adding it to my site (remember all sites must be free or at least have a significant amount of free content).</span></li>
</ol>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Welcome to Web Resource Hoarder Blog and the companion website at ZTLearn.com.</span><br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">What is the Web Resource Hoarder (WRH)?</span></li>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The Web Resource Hoarder is a Website and now also a Blog.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The site started out as a way to share K-12 Education Technology resources I was creating and curating at <a href="http://ti.apps.sparcc.org/">SPARCC</a>. The target audiences were K-12 Teachers and Students. It was originally called the Tech Web Resources site.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">As I created and found more and more resources the site, like many of my projects, it took on a life of its own. As the site grew in size, my colleague Eric Cuts (writer of the excellent Ed Tech Blog - <a href="http://www.controlaltachieve.com/">Control Alt Achieve</a>), gave it the moniker "Web Resource Hoarder". </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms, sans-serif;">For a site to be link to from WRH it <b>must offer free content and/or services.</b> It is OK to also have paid content, but there must be a significant and useful amount of free content/services </span></li>
</ul>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">What do the site and blog cover?</span></li>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">G-Suite (originally Google Apps for Education - GAFE) Resources including usage, tips, classroom projects and more.</span></li>

<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Free eBooks, Educational Videos, Podcasts, etc.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Teacher Resources and PLN</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Content Area Resources (aka Literacies). Each of the pages has instructional material & learning resources for students. Areas include:</span></li>
<ul>

</ul>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">What does ZTLearn mean?</span></li>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Since my retirement from SPARCC in December 2016, I need to move the hosting of the site.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">ZTLearn.com is simply the new site where I host my "Web Resource Hoarder" site.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The ZT is not an acronym, it comes from my Amateur Radio callsign K8ZT and its website <a href="http://k8zt.com/">k8zt.com</a></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">ZTLearn.com domain was available at a reasonable cost (as opposed to sites with "learning" instead of "learn" which cost much, much more). </span></li>
</ul>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Boy that was a long description! Go explore "The Web Resource Hoarder" site for yourself and don't blame me when you realize you have spent hours lost in the massive amounts of material and resources! </span></div>
