Activities for Students Centers Grades K-5. Activities compiled by the Florida Center for Reading Research include objectives, materials list, and step-by-step instructions.

More than math games - arts, languages, literacy, science, social studies, health, and more. Games, activities, puzzles, and teaching ideas for many holidays.

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.

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

This site offers a wealth of information and many great resources for teachers interested in using digital media for storytelling and other activities.  There are a number of very good, clear, screencast tutorials for teachers to use. Preview a few to see if you might be able to use them with your classes. I thought they were great for high school students, and they inspired me to think about creating my own screencasts for other tutorials! :-)

A web site for students and teachers to explore. Young students can explore the virtual world of Dr. Seuss through activities and games. Also, teachers can integrate lesson plan activities related to Dr. Seuss books (ex. Earth Day lesson plan using the The Lorax).

This website provides amazing resources and lesson plans to teachers free of charge. There are online activities that students can complete as well from creating a book or cd cover to making a character biography cube.

A great resource for lesson plans that is aesthetically pleasing and easy to navigate. I've used it during my time as an undergraduate student, and found it very helpful.
