This is a fun interactive game where kids can get in the ring with some of the world's greatest thinkers and box it out by solving math problems. Kids can have fun while doing quick math. I think boys would especially enjoy this fun and quick paced learning game.
This is a great site to "activate your mind". It is a free interactive site that has activities for all subject areas. I especially like the activity that teaches about simple machines. This site helps students really grasp some more challenging concepts in a fun way.
This website has everything from math to fine arts. This site allows children to play intrtactive games in the typical subject areas and it also brings out more creative outlets, such as creating animtations. There is even a music tab where children can create their own masterpiece.

This site is full of downloads for clip art. One of the teachers I did an observation for showed me this website. It does cost money, but it's a cute idea to use for letters sent home to parents or to decorate the classroom!
AMAZING website! Great way to get your students into understading how to use computers. You can post assignments, test dates, and even printable worksheets on this website. It's a virtual classroom!
This site does require membership, but it is worth it in my opinion! Everything is broken down into categories and its very easy to read. A lot of the projects/readings are directed towards everyday situations.
This is a great math resource. It is geared towards elementary and middle school math students. They have a ton of games and even videos on how to do certain kinds of problems.
