a site called JamStudio (PLN Wk3.2)

This website is called JamStudio and it looks like a great resource for any classroom - music or non-music.  I have shared it with some of the high school teachers in my building.  It allows you to make the accompaniment for a song.  It can be used to create the accompaniment and have students improvise a melody, or it can be used to help teach chord progressions.  We plan to use it when teaching blues - the students will have to learn the proper progression, input the proper progression, then make up their own blues song.  I also think any classroom could use it and have students create songs about different subjects.
