One Potato Two Potato Hot Potato Four

Hot Potatoes is a freeware developed by the good folks at the University of Victoria, specifically for language instruction! The program allows you to create all kinds of nifty web-based activities, like crossword puzzles, matching, multiple choice jumble-sentences, and gap-fill exercises. It was a little tricky to use at first, but after a few minutes playing around with the program, I was able to create some pretty sweet interactive web-based activities. I think this is going to be a very handy tool for the classroom...I may have found a way to make even verb conjugation practice a little more fun!
