    This website gives 100 free web tools for Elementary teachers. The list is organized into several different categories: 1) Organization and Collaboration, 2) Search Engines and Directories, 3) Google, 4) Templates and Lesson Plans, 5) Research and Reference, 6) Games, 7) Reading and Writing, 8) Math and Science, 9) Arts, 10) History and Social Studies, 11) Online Libraries, and 12) Activities. This is a great resource for teachers to use for instruction as well as to give to students to use for classroom work and homework.

    This looks like a great resource for anyone in education, teaching or learning. It is well organized and provides links to a lot of useful free tools. I wish I had this stuff when I was growing up.

    This looks like a great resource for elementary teachers, providing so many links in one place. It is like an annotated bibliography, presenting various resources for teachers to use, making it easy for us to navigate. Though I plan to teach in secondary education, some of these categories could still be used with high schoolers in my English classroom, especially Google and the Research & Reference resources. I think that teachers in elementary education will find this resource very useful, and I could even show it so some of my high school students so that they would have different things to explore if they were interested. I found a similar website that compiles resources from around the web, focusing on Language Arts education: http://www.internet4classrooms.com/lang_mid.htm. Here, there are citation guides, research help, online literature links, and many other great activities for the LA classroom.

    This looks like a great resource to keep on hand for teachers! I feel like it should be used mostly by teachers and they should definitely take advantage of it. Too often do teachers use the same routine every day and use stuff out of books! Why not go on the computer and research things that can spice up your classroom.

    This is a great resource for teachers to use in their classrooms to enhance learning. It has a WIDE variety of useful tools that can make learning more fun and engaging. I would recommend that the teacher scans through these options prior to opening them up to students. The teacher could select a few good ones and show them to the students to use during class or at home. I do no have any bookmarks similar to this one, but I am sure there are a lot out there that could be just as helpful. Thanks for sharing the great resource!

    This website collects lessons from other websites and offers abstracts describing these lessons. Teachers can peruse these options to teach a specific subject or theme.

    A good site! It's kinda like a academic video tutorial library. The resources here are really amazing! It provides video tutorials with different subjects (most of them are about math) and different levels to students and allows them to practice what they have learned through online testing. I think it's a good resource for home schooling students. Thanks for sharing!

    This is an interesting website! When I was looking at it, I wanted to bookmark it for myself to show my high school teachers. It could be used for teachers and students, but not only that parents can go on there too! I am not strong in the math area so this would be perfect for me!

    This is a great website! I have seen this mentioned on the news a couple of months ago. It has a lot of interactive videos for students and teachers to use to enhance learning. This would be a great site to show students at the beginning of the year so they can reference for assistance throughout the year. Bookmarking it now! I am unaware of any other similar sites at this point.

    This is a great tool for math and science teachers. It's a really good resource for kids to have when they are struggling with a concept. When it's uploaded as video they can chose their own pace by pausing the video. I myself have used YouTube videos like this to help me learn something new.

    I have used this site myself to help with math tutoring and it really is a efficient tool to do some quick teaching.

    This website is sponsored by the Iowa Department of Education. It lists the standards and benchmarks for the differing grade levels and subjects. It is a great resource for teachers to use while planning their lessons.

    This resource is very beneficial and can be used in the classroom. I think that this resource is mostly for teacher use. This gives you a foundation of standards and benchmarks that can be helpful in making a solid lesson. For teachers that are not going to be teaching in Iowa they can find the standards for the state in which they are teaching in.

    This is a good resource for mainly teachers. I would use this resource to help create and give the final touches to my lesson plans. I think all teachers would benefit from using this resource. Having this resource bookmarked would save time, which is important for all teachers, while creating and getting ideas for lesson plans.

    This is a great resource, mostly for teachers or for students who are inspiring to be a teacher. I have used it in many of my classes and it has helped me out with planning lessons. This would be a good resource to have bookmarked on your page.

    If I were only allowed to have a handful of bookmarks, this would definitely be one that I would choose. Thank you for including this bookmark for our Diigo group.

    It is a great idea to add this resource. I myself have had to refer to this site so many times. It will be a great resource for now and for when we are in the teaching field. Thank you for adding this so it is in a common place for everyone.
