This is a great website for science videos, photographs and information for students and teachers to go through to find information. I love many of the videos you can look through to help make a lesson more concrete for students. However the videos are many and great they always start with advertisements which I do not like and think it takes away from the video. However if you look at the Kid version of National Geographic I did find they did not have advertisements before the video begins.

Useful for middle or high school teachers, this kid-friendly, interactive website offers brief activities and narratives related to Greek theatre. I am currently using it to explain how the Oracle at Delphi became Apollo's seer.

If you use rubrics in your classroom but hate starting from scratch, this is the the place for you! Sign up for free and search by keyword for rubrics in the specific skill or content area you are grading. Then edit and save! You can even put a link to your rubric on the assignment directions, saving paper and trees! This is a link to a rubric I recently created, but you can get to the home page from here.

I really like this! I love that you can embed the link to the rubric. This would be very helpful with a WebQuest or Scavenger Hunt lesson. I have used Rubistar before. It is similar, but I think this site offers more options. http://rubistar.4teachers.org/

This seems like a great resource! Colonial times is a part of my curriculum, and so I definitely plan on integrating this resource into my instruction. There are various features of this website that would motivate and engage students. Great find!

Rachel Nachman on 08 Oct 13

This is a great mathematics drill-and-practice educational software for students of all ages. It is completely web-based, and so students can access it from any computer with an internet connection. Each student has a personalized account and completes drills that focus on his or her specific "math fact needs". Thus, students are receiving individualized practice for math facts. My students love it! It's free, easy to use, and extremely student-friendly. I highly recommend it!

There are resources for each content area. When thinking of how to integrate science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, this is a great website to check out!

Questia is a library research tool for students to assist them in writing research papers. Since most students do not have easy access to databases with more reliable sources, Questia provides students with tools to improve their research skills. The site also provides students with tutorials to help them improve their writing and researching. I have begun to implement some resources to help my high schools students improve their research skills, which is an area they often struggle in. This seems to be the most promising tool for achieving that goal.
