A couple different activities for students to use which offer immediate feedback.

This website is an elementary/middle school music teacher's dream! The 130 quizzes and games on music theory, composers and the piano will engage and motivate students! The games have colorful graphics, fun sound effects, and provide students with instant feedback! Many of the games give individual student recognition when completed by allowing them to type their name to a printable award certificate.

With Smartmusic software, I can create and send customized assignments to my students' home computer. Students play or sing exercises into a microphone and receive instant feedback on note and rhythm reading accuracy! Because it is a lot like Guitar Hero, kids find it extremely fun and are motivated to practice and improve! The software also allows students to record and listen to themselves. I can track students' progress, grade assignments and compile portfolios of student work with the software.

Looks interesting.  I haven't played here yet.

This is a great place to set up a website for classroom or personal use. Many teachers are now moving toward websites on blogspot. You are able to do so many things on these blogs such as: post pictures, play music, follow others, post documents, etc. These blogs are incredible. I usually get lured into one, then another and another most days/nights and before I know it...an hour has passed. Why not set your blog up today?

Resources for Everyday Mathematics, including online games sorted by grade level and unit.

An online classroom - teachers can create a classroom, post questions, assignments and feedback. Students can answer question and post assignments.

Glogster is a way for students to make interactive posters. Creating a Glog is a great nonlinguistic representation of information for students. Music, video, photos and text can all be added to the Glogs. Finding a song, video or photo to represent the information in the students' Glog, is a great way to help the students better understand the topic and teach their peers about the topic as well. Students can view others' Glogs in their classes and make comments on them. Teachers can also set up the glogs so that students can collaborate on them as well.

My favorite part of this site is the ability for students to give feedback to each other. I think that building collaborative learning groups with students is a very good thing. Plus, students do think that it's pretty cool.
