    This is a good website for current events in social studies. Students could refer to this page when looking for current events around the world for a research project. It is also good for the teachers to keep up to date on world events.

    This website would be perfect for opening up class each week when talking about Social Studies. It offers a couple of this week in history this happened scenerios. It also offers multiple topics to view such as government, cultures, economics, etc.
  •  
    Why I chose this site: I chose this site because social studies can often be a dry, boring, and uninteresting subject for kids. This site has lots of cool subjects and topics that can be relevant to kids. How I'm going to use this site: I could use this site in several ways. I could use it to talk about current events that are happening today or I could use it to teach kids about the past that we can longer experience first hand. This site could be used as a whole class, or, it could be used independently for research projects. It's nice too because it's kid focused so they wont run into topics, pictures, etc., that aren't kid friendly.

    This website talks about current events, geography, and holidays. It includes past history around the civil war period and Renaissance. This website contains stories and information about important history periods. Also, there are helpful fun facts and glossaries to help students with social studies.
  •  
    This site provides information about geography, government, war, middle ages, and many other areas that are studied in school. I like that it provides current events information as well. This site could be used in class if you wanted your students to write about something currently going on in the world, or even to research something from the past.

    Language Arts/Reading (1): This website is a useful teacher resource. It includes classroom strategies, reading guides, and tips on how to help struggling readers. This website is very credible and has sections for teachers, principals, librarians, parents, and other professionals. Reading Rockets has produced several shows on PBS and those are posted on this website as well. They include a variety of topics about reading. This website would be a useful tool to use in my future classroom because it contains newsletters with new and relevant topics regarding reading that are research-based (dyslexia, closing the literacy gap, etc.).

    I like that this site can be used for all different grade levels. I also like that if need you can "ask an expert." If I were to use this in a class room I think it would be helpful for researching states due to its "State Facts" section. I also think it would be fun to look at the section "This Day in History" daily to learn something new each day!

    Google Earth is a great resource to have in the classroom. It is the new map. It is interactive and would be very useful for students doing projects, researching different landmarks as well as different countries. It gives a glimpse at what the landscape looks like and can be zoomed in or out. However, it needs to be downloaded to be accessed.

    This interactive website could be very useful in very many different situations in the classroom. There are many different topics like The Civil War, Immigration, Continents, and so many more things. Students can use this website when they are learning about any of the following topics. There are games and also informational readings to go with them.
  •  
    This is similar to the math site I posted except it is for social studies. Again, the students pick which area they need/want to practice and they can click that area to play games pertaining to that section. I click on the states/capitals. If you click on the states, it says the capital, the flag, the motto, etc. This would be a great site if you want students to do research on different states and then design the flag for that state. It could be used for anything. Amber Koth

    Apples for teachers is more then just a website it helps keep the teacher informed on all the new resources available for their students. This website is for teacher that teaches all grade levels in elementary. This site has fun activities do to with their students. It also haves new articles related to education, stories and research available to them by this site.
  •  
    I chose this site because of the unique topics they have. Things like Groundhogs Day, and Chinese New Years, which may fit perfectly into your lesson, but, may be hard to find material on. This site is also neat because it has games you can have the students play, or it has things like coloring pages that you can print out (which may work better if you don't have access to enough computers for all your students to play on at once).

    This is a site that describes kids and their natural ability to run. It also gives you excercise tips, nutrition tips, and even motivational tips. This is a great site to help students get into exercise. It can even be great for parents to look at. It shows the benefits if exercise and is great for people who want to live a healthier life-style. It provides articles for further research. This would be great for any P.E. teacher to use for tips in the classroom.

    This a cool site that offers information on nutrition and exercise. It gives you resources and articles to do your own research on if you want to know more. There are brain teasers and games so you can have fun with the information. I liked how it showed the food organization in a different light and shows that they want to make money. I would use this in a health class for any age group. I think it would be a great resource.

    NASA.gov brings you the latest news, images and videos from America's space agency, pioneering the future in space exploration, scientific discovery and aeronautics research. I would have this during the solar system. I could have them look up NASA news. I feel this would be fun for some students to find more about NASA and their work.
