    Odds are pretty good that if you're talking about changes to teaching and learning that the new Read/Write Web is bringing about, many of the words you are using start with "C."

    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!

    An alternative to Google apps. You can write documents, make presentations, chat, and even have another source for email.

    This is a very useful tool, and it is free for educational purposes. I don't know how needed it is, however, because most of the features can already be found on-line for free. I feel that Google would be a better option for schools, because it is more widely used and student would be able to make use it after graduation.

Here, you will find classroom resources, searchable by interactive type, learning objective, and theme; professional development resources and tools, and resources for parents. There is also an area for after school activities to use with students to build literacy skills!

    A site funded by an educational endowment from Verizon, this website has some good professional development articles about how to adapt news into lessonplans, tips on creative lessons and twenty-first century skills, and a database of lesson plans searchable by subject ans age.

    I'd never heard of this site before, thanks for sharing! One thing I found to be pretty neat, is the community discussions forum. Many controversial topics are being debated, such as: "Should schools continue to teach cursive writing?" It is important for teachers to keep their students' engaged and interested in their learning, but it is equally important for teachers to stay engaged.

    Thank you for sharing this site. I went through some of the different lesson plans and I am excited to be able to use them sometime. I wish I would have known about this resource when I was trying to make lessons for my level twos. It had so many different ideas for lessons. I looked at one about the Gettysburg Address and it was a great and thought provoking lesson.
