This is a site developed by a teacher to help with phonics and math. She has developed lessons to be used on line or printed out. This site is best suited for K-2
This site provides student with plenty of resources to find answers for their homework. It has dictionaries, translation sites, pictures, encyclopedias, geography, museums, sounds, thesaurus, math, measurments, grammar and other useful sites.
This site has tutorials for multiple different math subjects providing many examples. Once you select a math level you can then select the individual topic and this site provides help with interactivity for students as they work towards the solution.
This site allows you to enter your desired topic (average, addition, mean, mode, etc.) and your desired time allowed to create a quiz that can be tracked electronically. No more paper chase..
I loved using this site to help my students practice skills in reading and math prior to completing science practice. Unfortunately the science test is testing reading comprehension as much as it tests science. If students are great at hands on experiments but cannot associate a paragraph of written material to the hands on activity, then they will not do well on FCAT Science. FCAT Explorer will help with those skills prior to science lessons.
FCAT Explorer is a free, online educational program for Florida's students that reinforces reading and math skills outlined in the Sunshine State Standards.
Bill Nye the Science Guy! This site has an entire section for kids and teachers. Episode guides, home demos, demos that you can print (printable one sheets), and pop quizzes. There is also information about Bill Nye Solving for X - Bill Nye does Math!!
The site features a dodgeball game with a teacher and has students determine and create number sentences. There are science, language arts, and social studies games as well.
