Fantastic site. Very interactive, fun and most importantly - educational. I could see using this site with elementary - middle level students. However, there are some applications that could be used as high as high school too.
This website is the best when students need to review geography of any location in the world. The software can be used on an individual or group level.
The National Geographic website is a great resource for both students and teachers. The site has activities and games that students can use to help guide learning.
PHeT is a website based out of Colorado that contains interactive simulations for physics, biology, chemistry, earth science, and math. The simulations are interactive and allow students the opportunity to experiment.
University of Colorado at Boulder- Great simulations. This site also comes with lesson plans that other teachers have created for use with the simulations. You can click on the subject and get the thumbnails to view
This site is a great resource designed to assist teachers in teaching language arts. It provides a variety of resources from teaching comprehension, poetry to providing author studies. One of my favorite components of the site is the extensive selection of printable Readers Theatre. The author of the site even has a blog!
This site is an overall teacher resource that provides many different links for a variety of topics. The site has great resources for parent communication, and lesson planning support.
Games for all types of math functions, practice with online manipulatives like compass or fractions, timed fact practice (choose an operation and level). Some games can be frustrating because gaming skills interfere with correct mathematics.
This is a great website it gives kids lots of different and easy experiments they can do on their own. The kids have quizes they can take and fun facts to look up. It's a New Zealand site but it's a lot of the same things that we teach here.
This site is like some other sites we have looked at where you can colaberate with others on a web site. The thing I liked about this site is you can add pictures and documents when you are working.
This article is an excellent resource for students as they cover specific books in class. This site offers chapter summaries and character descriptions to help students understand information from the text. There are also quizzes to assist students in studying for tests. This site is an especially useful resource in studying the works of Shakespeare, as it offers modern-day language translations.
This site catalogs groups who are looking for or willing to participate in collaboration or videoconferencing. Offers search tool to help find matches for classroom curriculum. Great possibilities for a teacher looking to find a different way to present materials.
A web site with a multitude of science tools separated by appropriate grades. There are too many tools to describe, but they cover all the areas of science, and all have huge potential in the classroom.
