A resource for teachers to find help or resources related to specific math and science areas and topics. A sort of social networking site for both math teachers and science teachers.
This is a great source for science teachers. It is a way to provide students with a glimpse at the lives of modern day scientists. There is a tab for teachers which provides tips for teachers (lesson plans, 5 minute tasks to do in class, project ideas, homework assignments), web resources, video clips, etc.
This is an absolutely free website that allows teachers to create quizzes, exams, worksheets, study guides, etc. Once created, you save the document on Quizinator ... you / your students are able to access these documents!! It really is a really cool resource!
This is a great website for students and teachers who are interested in being tutored or doing tutoring. Students will find a lot of subject related help on this page while teachers may use it to learn more on their topic.
This is a website which provides links and resources for new and veteran middle grades teachers. The site provides links and information regarding many topics:
teachign strategies, maintaining student-teacher relationships balance, working with students from diverse cultures, newsletter, discussions, publications, etc.
This web 2.0 is alot like GoogleDocs. Writeboard is a free web-based tool that allows students to easily collaborate on a single document online. Different versions of the document are automatically tracked and saved so that old ideas are never lost and can be easily monitored by teachers. It would be incorporated well into an english class.
Really neat site that shows videos that are relevant to teaching.
There is a wide variety of what kinds of videos they show. There is math, science, etc.
You tube for teachers! Here you will find videos posted by teachers to aid in their instruction. Some stuff is really good, others not so much, but as with anything on the net you have to spend some time browsing. Great resource if you are not inclined to do your own video!
This site is an assessment site created specifically for teachers. It is an easy way to create tests, quizzes and so on and for the students to take those assessments.
Allows teachers, students, and parents to create their own personalized flashcards - pertaining to any subject! Card sets can be saved to the database for easy access later. You can even bookmark & share card sets, import, export, print, and quiz / study the cards in the database. This is a really engaging resource (and could be nicely incorporated in the classroom)!
This creative resource "...generat[es] "word clouds" from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text. You can tweak your clouds with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes. The images you create with Wordle are yours to use however you like. You can print them out, or save them to the Wordle gallery to share with your friends." This would be a great classroom activity as well as a unique supplement to any lesson plan!
this website is a good alternative to youtube. Youtbe is often blocked at schools and this website may not be, but still has a wide selection of videos to show in the classroom. A good resource to incorporate in the classroom.
