Awesome TED Talk about a different way to teach math. Are we making things too simple? TED Talks Today's math curriculum is teaching students to expect -- and excel at -- paint-by-numbers classwork, robbing kids of a skill more important than solving problems: formulating them. At TEDxNYED, Dan Meyer shows classroom-tested math exercises that prompt students to stop and think.
Excellent Resource for classroom science programs. Includes videos, interactives, and a section where students can email their questions about science to scientists!
StudyBUZZ is a test preparation tool for grades 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12. StudyBUZZ gives students personalized study guides that are directly aligned to BC, Alberta, Florida and Wahington Curriculum. The free tool helps them figure out what they do and don't know so they can use their study time more wisely.
The new offerings for school districts that subscribe [I think all BC has subscribed] include lots of tools for teaching to diversity. This site should be useful to many of us. Slow readers? Need text-to-speech? Readers Theatre? Lots more!
Science simulation software that contains everything you would find in a chemistry lab...raw elements, chemicals, equipment. You drag the items onto a work area to teach and/or create simulations such as chemical reactions...chemistry, electricity, math, computing, would be awesome on the SB.
