Hey guys! If you are a sixth grade social studies teacher like myself, this is the place to go.Utah;s standards are pretty close to the Next Gen Sunshine State standards and you can go to this site and search for a standard and it has a lesson plan that you can download. I come to this site from time to time when I get stumped on what to do. Enjoy!!!
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.
This website compiles games from around the Internet in one location. Each of the games correlates with topics learned in physics lessons. The games are entertaining for the students but also provide teachers with springboards into more difficult topics like gravity, force, motion, and Newton's Laws.
This is an educational site in which teachers will find a large collection of reading suggestions and materials for their students. The site lists all of the books found in the Young Patriots series, which is a series designed for children. It then goes on to provide additional websites and links for each specific Patriot and individual mentioned. As you explore a little further, you will find several short videos on each of these individuals that can be used as great lead ins to any lesson about these Patriots. I found this cite to be very easy to use and navigate through, and filled with great resources and content.
Fun learning site for teachers and students featuring thousands of free educational games and activities that are organized by subject, topic, theme, and grade level.

As a beginning teacher this website helped me form center activities for my students. It gives you everything you need or it tells you what to get to make the activity complete. Just print cut and laminate! Great resource to get centers started and then just change out once kids are gaining mastery.
