Thinkfinity

Thinkfinity is an excellent site that will sort through hundreds of valuable resources to find lesson plans as well as resources for guided, and independent practice. A search for resources to teach biographical writing produced an excellent student resource that supports student understanding of summarizing, main idea, and more:  Bio-CubeYou can refine any search by grade level, standards, subject, Thinkfinity Partners or resources (audio, interactivities, lesson plans, primary sources, videos, or worksheets.) 

Discovery Streaming Links to Videos to Support Math

bullet

Under your "My Content" link, you'll find a tab titled, "My District."  Click on the tab and you'll see a folder titled "MS Math Content Aligned to DS."  Mary-Ellyn Tarzy and her classes worked hard all last year to find the perfect video in Discovery Streaming that would help them understand each math concept they studied.  www.discoveryeducation.com  (contact maps@powayusd.com for your login or password, or ask another teacher at your site.)

SAS Curriculum Pathways

bullet

Excellent resources for MS math are being added to SAS Curriculum Pathways this year.  Login with your site login and type 1244 in the Quick Launch.  Scroll down the page to the "solvers."  Students can solve problems provided by SAS or they can enter assigned problems from class.  After each step the student types, the program will give feedback to let them know they are on the right track or what they might consider instead.  There are also math units under the Math tab by math subject area.  www.sascurriculumpathways.com
 

Teacher Created Resources

bullet Jessica Poggemoeller created a           great document to help k-2 teachers 
form learning strategy groups and then select the best learning concepts from DesCartes to guide their mini-lessons. We've adapted the charts and added Language Usage for Elementary and Middle School teachers.
