"Vocabulary Games"

This website offers free, interactive resources online featuring Latin & Greek root-based activities at grade levels. It was listed as an instructional resource on the Florida Department of Education website.

This site provides interactive and fun ways for students to practice and learn new vocabulary words via games, puzzles, and crosswords. It is suitable for students from high elementary grades through college!

One more website I use from time to time. Internet4classrooms is a great site because you can find your topic and grade and you can access a bunch of projects, websites, and also lesson plans. My kids are in the prehistory chapter and I used a lesson plan from this site in which students can only use cave man sign language to talk the entire and they loved it!

Starfall.com opened in September of 2002 as a free public service to teach children to read with phonics. Our systematic phonics approach, in conjunction with phonemic awareness practice, is perfect for preschool, kindergarten, first grade, second grade, special education, homeschool, and English language development (ELD, ELL, ESL).

This is a great site for children ages 2-8. It teaches pre-reading as well as reading skills up to 2nd grade. Includes games, animated stories, songs, and writing activities. I use it daily!

Starfall is a free website that teaches children how to read through phonics. It has practice games on phonemic awaresness. The program is great for grades K-2, second language learners and special education.

Pete's Power Point contains hundreds of free Power Point presentations on all core subjects for both primary and secondary educators. All of the Power Points can be downloaded and used as is, or you can alter them to fit your lesson and teaching style.    

This website is definitely worth bookmarking! There are numerous premade PowerPoints for all content areas. It would be very helpful for anyone who has a projector or uses a TV for instruction. These PowerPoints could be used as an introduction or for reviewing content before an assessment.

Erik, I didn't realize you posted this great website already. Sorry- I tried to delete my bookmark but I was unable to. I will find another resource to contribute :)

A list of over 400 social media and social networking sites.

This is a website that is great for providing your students with extra support on problematic areas in the classroom. I think this website is best for worksheets. They offer ebooks and they are organized by topic. Membership for this site is free; however, their suggested sites (i.e. vocabularyatoz and writing atoz) are not free. Overall, this site is great for content specific extra support in the classroom, in all core subject areas.

Great website for K-6 Educators for enrichment and supplemental materials for Science and Social Studies. Students can use the site to explore information that is formatted in a fun and easy-to-read way. Or, they can use the site to play games, take quizzes, look at photos and maps, look up crafts and recipes, enter contests, and more. Teachers can use the site to project on an interactive whiteboard for quizzes and whole-class games. I like the site because it is culturally-rich and informative, yet kid-friendly.

This is an awesome website with short (and free!) videos to help teach all types of math from 1st - college and some higher level sciences. It's great for those days when the kids don't want to listen to your voice anymore.

Great video library for tutoring and support on a wide variety of subjects from math to science to art history.

Really liked this site,thanks for posting it

This website has a good assortment of online games for many subject areas. There is also a section of pre-school read alouds to explore. Be careful! As this website is a free site, there are some ads along the sides and top of the pages.

This site has educational games for kids grades Pre-K to 8th grade.

Great website to get writing lessons, ideas, prompts and activities for the classroom.

This is a great site for language arts writing resouces. It's based on the 6 + 1 Traits of writing. There are interactive lesson plans, interactive writing prompts, student samples which help struggling writers with the brainstorming and organizing writing at many different levels. This website is FANTASTIC! I've used it a number of times with my 1st Graders!!

Great website for technology acquisition.

Excellent website to enhance learning in the classroom. This website allows students to explore historical places in a kid-friendly context.

A website created by kids for kids. Information and activities about character. This is part of the ThinkQuest Library sponsored by Oracle Education Foundation.
