By Wendy S. Bray elling children that they can learn from their mistakes is common practice. Yet research indicates that many teachers in the United States limit public attention to errors during math- ematics lessons (Bray 2011; Santagata 2005). Some believe that drawing attention to errors publicly may embarrass error m

Good website as a start or support resource for implementing technology lessons ( and mini-lessons) in the classroom.

Find basic computer skills, Internet research tips, Internet safety resources, lessons, and worksheets to help integrate technology across the curriculum. Learn the history of the Internet; get help with using computer word processors; find out how to create PowerPoint presentations; understand the difference between a podcast and a blog; research interesting science projects online; use the computer to extend a literature activity; and other fascinating activities. Encourage your students to use technology in school and out. The possibilities are endless, when it comes to how the Internet, computers, and other forms of modern technology can benefit your classroom instruction.

Teacher videos, resources and lesson plans. Discover great ideas and strategies to use as a teacher with this collection of videos covering Math, Science, English, History and more.

This is the Teaching Channel's website filled with educator resources.  I have found several Science lab ideas from this site.  Many resources are standards based and grounded in STEM research, but there are resources for all subject areas.  There are also videos available that show lessons in practice.  

This is a great resource for creating centers and improving reading instruction. Although this is not an interactive website, it is very user friendly. The website can be searched by grade level or by reading component. You can print out the resources, laminate them and save yourself a lot of time for making center activities.

The Florida Center for Reading Research (FCRR) is a multidisciplinary research center at Florida State University. FCRR explores all aspects of reading research-basic research into literacy-related skills for typically developing readers and those who struggle, studies of effective prevention and intervention, and psychometric work on formative assessment.

Great websites for resources on reading. You can get great lesson plans for intervention.

This site has lesson on internet research.

Lisa, This site is loaded with good resources and ideas. I love it. Thanks for sharing :) Hasnaa

Great site with resources for teacher with lesson plans, helpful websites, and activities and worksheets. Also has pages for kids and teenagers with links to different subjects and sites pertaining to those subjects.

Provides a safe place for students to learn that is divided based on age group. It provides art, music, math, science lessons, and more. It also has an area for teachers to find lesson plans and for parents to learn how to help their children learn.

Teachers: Do you ever feel like you can't possibly take a day off of teaching? Those days are over! Instantly print these lesson sets out and your students are set from the entire day.

About This Site - This is a site with technology lesson plans for elementary school children. There are activities for word processing, spreadsheets and graphing, powerpoint presentations, graphic arts, multimedia, internet research and more. So simple to use!

Learned about this on a field trip! Has TONS of free resources, lesson plans, and videos for teachers to use. Has a website dedicated for students to look at as well. Can be slightly difficult to search through at first, but has gotten much easier!

Free resources including animation, primary documents, photos, and videos. Lesson plans are also available.

"Standards-based teacher lesson plan books make it easy to integrate visual thinking and learning across the curriculum. Teachers get practical ideas and step-by-step directions for engaging students in activities that encourage learning, thinking and creativity."

If you're anything like me, you can't get enough information when it comes to state standards. Reading the state's detailed list of expectations for each standard helps me use student data strategically to plan my lessons.

Resource for helping history come to life for today's student.

Visual thesaurus -- especially good with Smartboards when students struggle with words during a lesson.

Graph Words is a free visualization tool to explore English dictionary and thesaurus, helps you to search the meaning of words and other associated words.

This site provides many applications for pictures or video such as edit, download, add, and design. The site also offers lessons for students to acquire skills. This is useful when the student is using the site to design and add three-dimensional effects of the classroom that help students visualize the environment and their effects through the image to develop the sensory side of the student. The student can also download images on the site and engage with other students, teachers, and parents.

This Website helps to learn and practice basic math functions including algebra, problem resolution skills, as well as methods of teaching students who feel frustrated with math. I think that this site provides enough information to learn and develop the skills of students in mathematics. Students can learn through private lessons individual or through a collective use of videos and with a forum for discussion with the experts.

A place for teachers to visit to find lessons connected to comprehension skills such as author's purpose, compare and contrast, and prediction. You can search by grade level and even alignment to the Common Core Standards. If you are a K-6 teacher that enjoys teaching with picturebooks, then this is worth checking out!

Great website that has thousands of passages for your students. You can seach by lexlie level, by skill/strategy, or by grade. I use these all the time in the classroom to review skills I've already taught. Common Core aligned, teacher & principal endorsed.

The website has reading passages that are based on lexile levels, skills, and type of passage. You'll love this research-based reading comprehension curriculum. Check out ReadWorks.org!
