Teachertube is a Youtube for teachers. This site has filtered videos, audios, photos, and documents that teachers can use in their classroom and feel comfortable that they are appropriate for the classroom. You simply search the topic and specify what type of resource you are looking for, and teachertube finds what you need.

I have used this site before, as have many of us have. Weebly is a great way for teachers to inform students and parents about their classroom. They can put a list of assignments, important dates, as well as a list of rules, consequences, and resources for students and parents to use. They can include links as well as a place where parents can connect and ask questions.

I have heard of edmodo being used in the classrooms, and I think it is a great way for parents, students, and teachers to connect. Teachers can notify parents about upcoming tests and projects so they can give their students a little extra push to finish a project or study for a big test they have the next week.

With this website, you can take away the hassle of creating your own rubrics on a word document. Rubistar allows you to enter in the requirements you wish to have, specifying and tweaking them as need be. I think this is a great website that simply helps make the life of a teacher much easier in terms of saving time.

Teacher's corner has an abundance of resources for teachers to use. Worksheets, lesson plans, seasonal items, bulletin boards, collaborating projects, units and message boards are all at the use of a teacher. The teachers corner has a lot of very helpful resources for teachers to use on a daily basis, or when they are in a bind or need something new and creative.

This website really caters to the students interests. Students can play a math game with the superhero who fights crimes when they solve a math problem. They can read a story with their favorite character and be excited and engaged when the character asks comprehension questions after the story is over. 

Funbrain is a great website for games which actually provide an educational stimulation. I have interacted with the games and as the student completes a game, the difficulty level slowly increases, testing their abilities and cognitive knowledge. 

Kids health is a website geared for parents, teachers, and kids. There are separate sections to the website which you must choose. Each section is tailored towards a certain group. Parents can gain knowledge and receive advice for questions they have. Students can receive help on homework, and ask questions about their body and how it works. Lastly, teachers can give answers, as well as receive them, seek advice, and have straight talk.

Exploring nutrition is a hard concept for young kids to understand. However, this website can really help. Students will be able to learn through exploration of the different games which foods are considered "good and bad." They can sort them into the different food groups and learn about the food pyramid.

National Geographic  has a variety of resources, and can be used for small mini lessons. The information on this website is extremely reliable and current events can always be found here. The website is very kid friendly, and the vocabulary is well defined and easy for kids to read.

This is an overall great website for students to use that represents all of the subject areas. Students can go to a general content area, then go more specific and find a game or resource that could really help them in terms of a project or paper they need to complete. I feel teachers could really utilize this, and provide their students with a great resource.

BrainPop is extremely useful for all teachers, and I think should be completely utilized. All subjects are present, and students can learn and explore a variety of topics. However, teachers can utilize lesson plans, standards, and create homework assignments on the website. Truly a great site to add to a PLN.

Science for kids is useful for kids and teachers. There are specific lessons that teachers can utilize, that include fun interactive games, experiments, and worksheets for the students. Teachers can also prepare students by using quizzes as a "pre-test." 

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.

When working on a geography unit, this site would be very helpful. Students can practice their state recognition easily as well as learn about the states. This site could also be utilized for current event research. If a social studies teacher wanted to give a list of current event resources, this would be a great resource.

A website that can be used at any grade level; however, I would use it as a center rather than a staple part of a lesson. This could simply provide extra practice for a subject area that may need extra practice. Although it has lessons and sections for the older grades, it is based more for the younger grades, it would be more engaging for them.

This could be used throughout an entire semester in a classroom. Students can create an account and the teacher can either utilize it as a tool in the classroom or as an incentive of outside practice. Rather than assigning homework the teacher could have the students complete a lesson Working and completing all sections on this website could also be used as an incentive, those students who finish by the end of the year win a prize of some sort.

Starfall is a great website to use if your school has not implemented phonics into their curriculum. The site is interactive and geared towards younger children first learning to read. It starts at the very beginning and works its way through the alphabet, learning to read, and different levels of reading. However, I feel this website could also be used for ELL learners.

This site has a lot of interaction, as well as a variety of topics within the language arts spectrum. Students can be given a specific section they need more practice on, and can be worked on during a center. I can see this being utilized in centers very often especially if students are struggling in a specific section.
