This is the section of the Minnesota Dept. of Education's website called "Educator Excellence," furnished with resourses to help educators succeed such as Early Learning Resources, Professional Development and Teacher Programs. Worth taking a look at to compare with FL Dept. of Ed's website.

LOVE THIS SITE!!
Wow great site, I love that they have an area that will help you with challenging students. I am going to keep searching to see if they have anything on ESOL students, if not it would be a great addition to the site. The site is GREAT!! Thank you!
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.

This is a great resource for creating centers and improving reading instruction. Although this is not an interactive website, it is very user friendly. The website can be searched by grade level or by reading component. You can print out the resources, laminate them and save yourself a lot of time for making center activities.

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!!!
Awesome website! This site extremely vast in educational topics and links for assistance. The teacher tool kit link is priceless. You are able to generate worksheets, create word bingo activities (great for vocabulary retention) and there are lesson plans (i.e. sentence starters). My favorite link is the alternative assessment; here, you can find ideas and rubrics for alternative assessments in your classroom.
This is a great website to learn about the currency of the United States. There are interactive games that allow students to learn more about currency past and present and even to try their hand at making their own. This website would fit in well in a history or social studies lesson and could be used for children in first through fifth grade.
