Teacher Resources & Books for Teachers, Children's Book Recommendations & Student Activ... - 1 views

  •  
    Scholastic.com is a gateway with an overabundance of activities for both teacher and student. Scholastic provides easy to navigate tabs for locating resources and tools, strategies and ideas, student activities, and books and authors by grade levels (Pre-K-12). The choices are filtered by grade, subject, and activities to effectively narrow down the user's search (i.e.), math, social studies, reading, sports, special education, language arts and animals. Once the user has selected the necessary discipline, they are able to use interactive and engaging web and whiteboard activities as well as a variety of lesson plans that are geared toward the 21st Century learner.

    NBC Learn provides a wealth of videos, primary source documents, and overall media from the past 80 years and now.  The content is divided into K-12 and Higher Ed.  It is a paid resource, but there is free content available.  This could easily be utilized in the classroom and help make newsworthy events of our past real for students today.

NASA - Students - 1 views

  •  
    A science topic that is bound to grab and hold onto everyone's attention is outer space. NASA offers four versions of their student site: K-4, 5-8, 9-12, and higher education. Each version offers some basic "must-haves" for primary sources such as photo libraries, videos, and a link to NASA-TV. In addition, there are games to motivate students, career profiles (to help students see what steps are necessary if they want to become an astronaut), and "Homework Topics" to help students extend their learning. There is also a great NASA Kids Club that is available!
