I couldn't figure out why this was going to an old blog. I had it on private. I didn't even realize I could do that! Either way, problem solved (just not as early as I would have liked)!

I know this is a video (not super fancy technology) but I saw it used in a classroom today and it is very effective (and kind of cute)! Reading videos are created by teachers, using a multi-modality approach to learning. They have animation, lots of colors, songs, rhyming, repetition, and dogs!

I really like to make graphic organizers with this site. You can add pictures and/or color or not. You can make the whole thing a fun shape, if you like. It's cute. It's fun. It's free!

This is a fun and educational website! There are some things it asks you to download from itunes, but there are many, many games and apps available for free. This site offers great math and language arts computer games for elementary students grades k-5.

This is another website that is part accessible for free, but there is a pay option to take advantage of the rest ($ per year). Scholastic offers lesson plans, worksheets, mini books, a whole section of "computer lab favorites" with learning activities students can do on the computer in 30 minutes or less, videos, a class homepage builder, and more. Building a whole unit (any subject) is made easy with the resources available on this site. There is even a special section for new teachers!

This is a great website for teachers to look up lesson plans, games, assessments, glyphs, worksheets, etc., for any subject. Some things can be accessed for free, some cannot. Annual membership is only $20, and allows you unlimited access. Teachers may search by subject, skill, or grade level. The site is very user friendly, and has a lot of great resources!
