Great Teacher Tools!

FunBrain
This is a website which includes a wide range of educational games, books, and short comics for elementary level students. My favorite part of this website was the math games, many counting games along with a range of other math games. Math being a difficult subject for many students makes it a much more appealing educational game for students in the classroom.

Discovery Kids
This website is a bit more common, but they have a variety of science related topics for students to take a look at. These activities include recipes and experiments that are simple for students to complete with an adult near by. There were also a variety of games on this website, not as many directly educationally related but there were still some.

Storyline Online
This is a great website for elementary level reading, a little more interactive than some website. It includes a streaming of select stories being read, along with follow up activities and some lesson plans for each book. I found the story being read especially helpful, in lower elementary this could be a good way for students to follow along with the story since the book is still showed.

NASA for Students
NASA for students is a great webpage with video clips, pictures, stories, and interactive activities, all of which would be great and extremely useful for a space unit. I especially liked how this website had the option to narrow your search for the age group you are working with of focusing on.

TIME for Kids
Its very important that we teach our students to keep up with current events, these events are just as important as anything in ancient or past history. So TIME for Kids has a variety of news stories that would interest a variety of students, also in a simplistic vocabulary which many kids would be more capable of understanding, compared to an actual newspaper. TIME for kids also has a section called: "TFK Kid Reporters," this is a very useful tool that could be used as encouragement in the classroom to get involved, and open the opportunity for you class to submit stories also.
