| Select sites with useful online tools for teachers |
| www.quia.com (Free trial and inexpensive. Make customizable Internet-based quizzes, games, etc. Track student scores. Create a class web page.) |
| www.roobrix.com (includes a VERY IMPORTANT explanation on how not to grade erroneously with rubrics at the “Why use roobrix?” link; includes a rubric-generator) |
| www.puzzlemaker.com |
| www.teach-nology.com/web_tools/lesson_plan/ (Scroll down to use this lesson plan generator. It is a tool into which you can type.) |
| A site with printable and/or downloadable worksheets (there are many more) |
| www.edhelper.com (I use the free service, but most teachers say that paying for full access is MORE than worth it.) |
| Select sites that help teachers to vary student products beyond worksheets |
| www.interactive-notebooks.wikispaces.com (all about physical Interactive Student Notebooks (ISNs); explains how to assign student notebooks that are more than just repositories of notes . . . A potentially great student organizational tool because it will hold most if not all student notes, work, etc. Additionally, a HUGE, HUGE benefit to the teacher of using ISNs is that the quality and state of a student’s ISN can be the focal point of a parent-teacher-conference about student progress. It’s great documentation of the student’s (good or poor) work habits.) |
| www.dinah.com (books on foldables, projects, organization, and much, much more; I find the subject-specific books indispensible.) |
| www.funbrain.com (You can start a Funbrain gradebook and create, assign, and get student scores on language arts, math, etc. assignments. Funbrain has many games as well.) |
