A interactive K-5 lessons in math and reading.  I thought these were well done.

Scroll down through this list to find 150 1-hour long podcasts from two talented Canadian educators, Joan Badger and Ben Hazzard. Listen to do these after shcool or load them on an iPod and take them for a walk. Many lessons contain files for download and immediate use.

I found these podcasts really easy to listen to. I learned a lot!

Thanks for this link, Jan! I had not come across these before! Excellent personal learning resource.

Carol Walters hooked me on the website. Once there you can sign up for the "Writing Lesson of the Month Network & Ning" I have received two monthly emails writing lessons and it so far I think it is fantastic. It is based on the 6 traits of writing and uses picture books as the backbone of the lesson. Also student examples are provided and requested, so you can send your students' examples. I have only browsed the lessons so far and would love to try some out.

I used this in grade 3-6 classes to show concept of equal sign and how to balance equations.

This looks fantastic! Good first day back kinda activity!! "Equal Schmequal" sounds like a great resource too!

Yes, Alissa the lesson plan that Michelle is referring to is fanatastic and kids of all ages seem to grasp this concept pretty quickly. In fact my 6 year old son intuitively got it before my 10 year old.

Lots of interactive links as a jumping off point for creating your own lessons.

Lots of fantastic interactive lessons and games for all grade levels and subjects.

Tips and tutorials for creating Smarter Smart Board lessons.

Some great lessons, K-7, all subjects and many themes...

Holy pickles. Nice collection of Smartboard files. Looks like K-6. Organized by subject and then alphabetic.

Shows some good uses of SMART tools to create lessons.

Great interactive to use with the SBoard or in the lab

I checked out this site and see some useful lessons for our grade 5/6 class. Thanks.

Alissa I used the multiplication arrays and it was fantastic for teaching that 9 x 8 could be partitioned into (9 x 4) + (9X4). The kids made connections to partitioning and part-part-whole.
