"Explore collections from around the world" by using Google Arts & Culture. LOTS here, but I capture this for the 10th grade students doing research on Martin Luther King, Jr. A simple search of Martin Luther King, Jr brings up over 400 historical pictures, letters and telegrams as well as audio of MLK's speeches thus providing primary resources for students to delve deeply into history.

Awesome collection of tools, organized into categories for easy use: Organization & Collaboration, Search Engines & Directories, Google, Templates & Lesson Plans, Research & Reference, Games, Reading & Writing, Math & Science, Arts, History & Social Studies, Online Libraries, Activities.  Share with staff for use in classrooms

Google provides lessons and PowerPoints to teach the most effective and efficient ways to use a search engine.

I found many items on this site that would be useful for language arts teachers in particular, but really for any subject area. I could use some of the ideas myself. One example is a summer readling list. I have compiled many good lists from various sources every year and posted on my library pages, but this is a good example of the type of thing that could save some time by not re-inventing the wheel! Found useful link to using Diigo as well.

The actual site is www.curriki.org

I did a search in OER Commons and found a blended lesson that could become part of the lesson we are doing for this class. The search options by grade, subjects, and standards are very helpful. I had no idea this existed. It seems very versatile and links well with Google Classroom. It also provides support materials, teaching guides, and a thorough list of standards.
