Another great wealth of resources on Five Senses

Digital literacy in a well-organized presentation of information for educators and parents.

DOE blog called Homeroom, especially great for making sense of current Educational Policy decisions.

I was looking for 5 Senses Activities on Education World and came across this page. You can also tell this was my first time using diigo and that I'm half asleep, because I completely messed up where to type my comment. Sorry for the confusion.

When most of us hear the word A simple picture book such as Similarly, economics, we think of either our present precarious financial circumstances, or of world financial issues far beyond our own understanding, let alone the understanding of our students.

ALIMA students: Teaching learning as a skill- not a consequence

Today's tutoring programs are redefining learning by telling teachers what students need, when they need it. 

Develop a deep understanding of mathematics. This user-friendly resource presents grades 3-5 teachers with a logical progression of pedagogical actions, classroom norms, and collaborative teacher team efforts to increase their knowledge and improve mathematics instruction. Focus on an understanding of and procedural fluency with multiplication and division.

A very common sense approach to the "bullying crisis". It has alot of references to resources about bullying that could be useful but also a warning about the ever increasing helicoptering of parents which may be more harmful to our society in the end.

Great resource for teaching students to use the internet safely. Digital literacy and citizenship are important skills when using technology in the classroom. This is the scope and sequence outlined with age appropriate materials!

During the preschool years, young children are developing a sense of initiative and creativity. They are curious about the world around them and about learning. They are exploring their ability to create and communicate using a variety of media (crayons, felt-tip markers, paints and other art materials, blocks, dramatic play materials, miniature life figures) and through creative movement, singing, dancing, and using their bodies to represent ideas and experiences.
