The
Internet4Classrooms website by Susan Brooks and Bill Byles is one of the most
comprehensive Education Portals on the web.
At the
Internet for Classrooms site you'll find:
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-Cube.
You can refine any search by
grade level, standards, subject, Thinkfinity Partners or
resources (audio, interactivities, lesson plans, primary
sources, videos, or worksheets.)

ReadWriteThink

|
ReadWriteThink,
sponsored by the International Reading
Association and the National Council of Teachers of
English is an
excellent site with resources organized by grade level,
resource type, learning objective, or theme. If
you search through their interactive resources for
students, each is linked to multiple lessons to
introduce the concept needed before students practice
skills. |

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
