This is a site that provides a great number of study aids for biology and anatomy teachers.  I've used the site as a great way to lead guided practice in my classroom by playing the review games as a class, letting individual students come up and fill in answers.  The pictures alone are fantastic for teaching everything from the skeletal skeletal sustem to histology.

This is a great resource to allow students to work at their own pace.  It reinforces quick recall of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems.  It is great for both elementary and middle school students.

Standards based links and our grade level "Skillbuilders" to help students practice, either at home or in the classroom, what they have been taught. Several large collections of links for PreK-12 teachers, students and parents.

My students were getting bored with just completing basic worksheets or problems from the book; so i went looking for something a little more fun that wold not take me forever to create. In my search I ran across these PDF sheets. This is a collection of math worksheets where your answers solve a puzzle or riddle. My students like having these puzzles to solve and though they may act disinterested, they are always proud when they are the first to solve the riddle. This is just a simple way to make practice a little more fun.

Khan Academy has great video clips with detailed explanations of every middle and high school math topic (including linear algebra and statistics!) It's great for giving some variety in INM for students and having students practice note-taking skills by watching short video clips. It's also a great place to figure out how to explain complicated math topics.

Sejin, this is one of my favs! Science teachers and social studies teachers there are also excellent short clips on chemistry, biology, physics, economics and money and banking. Sal Khan's story is worth a look. He's a Ted talk presenter, has been featured on several news programs. This resource is excellent.

This resource is especially useful for activities dealing with geography for both guided and independent practice. It also has short video clips for hooks, and great ideas for lesson plans!
