Ties in to Google Earth. Incredible stuff

This is one of my favorite elementary classroom blogs. Maria Knee is a NH kindergarten teacher, a former NH Tech teacher of the year, and a generally awesome person. Just scroll through for lots of great ideas.

A great resource for public domain literature recorded for download.

Interested in reading one teacher's reflection on the first day of school? Here's a blog by Karl Fisch, who created that original "Did you know?" powerpoint. This looks like a blog specifically to share what happened in class each day as a part journal, part reflection, part transparent "open" teaching. It's worth reading - and rings true to what the first day is often about (if you are organized and everything goes according to plan).

Share and make your own online activities and games.

Pronunciation with mouth placement and vocabulary practice.

Great site with videos and lesson plans for all subjects produced by public television. It allso has professional development resources.

Site created by a high school science teacher as a visual aid for teaching biology.

Here's where I went to high school. Not a very impressive website, but it's something.

I don't think it's that bad. I really like how clear cut it all is. If I was a parent I wouldn't have to search around to figure out where I needed to go to let the school know my child was sick.

Teaching Development tips for Preservice teachers - a wallwisher tool embedded in a wiki with lots of tips from teachers left for advice to those just starting out.
