Teacher collaboration website – Better Lesson is a new website aimed at making it easier for teachers to share curriculum and ideas. Similar to Facebook, each user has his or her own profile (with general information, courses taught, and curriculum overviews), can join groups and networks, and can “colleague” others and then keep up through a news feed. Teachers can upload their 180-day curriculum, showing their supplies, texts, related lessons, and exchange digital files including video, audio, and images. Members have a rating chart to show how many people have downloaded each lesson plan, do key-word searches to find information on specific topics, and click “add to my curriculum.” There’s also a state standards tagging tool so teachers can tag and search for files that use specific standards.
Better Lesson’s business plan is “freemium” – offering free services while charging for advanced or special features. It’s still in beta and adding ten select schools to build up content and get feedback this year. Check it out at http://www.betterlesson.org .
RTI websites – The National Center on Learning Disabilities and several other groups have set up the Response to Intervention Action Network to support RTI in schools:
http://www.rtinetwork.org. In addition, the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Special Education Programs has created the National Center on Response to Intervention with evaluations of specific products and tools: http://www.rti4success.org.
World languages websites – The UCLA Language Materials Project has launched a new resource for elementary and secondary teachers of less-commonly taught world languages, complete with lesson plans and other materials: http://www.lmp.ucla.edu/K-12.
• Jeopardy creator – This free website allows teachers to create a customized Jeopardy template: http://jeopardylabs.com.
• African languages – The African Language Materials Archive focuses on the languages of Africa: http://alma.matrix.msu.edu.
• The e-Arabic Learning Portal is a reference and access point for learning Arabic:
• The news in Latin – Current news stories and features in clear and accurate Latin:
http://www.scorpiomartianus.com.
a. Three-minute explanations – This website gives short, simple explanations about a variety of phenomena (e.g., borrowing money, how U.S. presidents are elected, how Twitter works), using line drawings and a voice-over: http://www.commoncraft.com.
A new interactive programming language – The Lifelong Kindergarten Group at MIT’s Media Lab has developed Scratch, a free program that brings the kindergarten learning approach to the computer screen. Children can create their own interactive stories, games, and animations and then share their creations online. There’s now an active online community around Scratch, with users (most of them 8-16 years old) presenting over a thousand new projects every day. Check it out at http://scratch.mit.edu.
c. Poetry slams – In this Edutopia article, Grace Rubenstein describes the process that several New York City schools have gone through to get their students writing and performing poetry. In the link below, you can read several poems and see students performing.
Subgenre booklists –University of Texas/Arlington professor Nancy Hadaway provides this link to lists of books clustered by one particular author or by subgenre. Choosing multiple titles across genres is an excellent way to develop ELLs’ skills in English, she says.
http://www.ascd.org/ASCD/pdf/journals/ed_lead/el200904_hadaway_booklist.pdf
Quarterly goals for student reading levels – This chart from the Teachers College Reading and Writing Project (at Columbia University) suggests the Fountas-Pinnell reading levels that students should attain at each stage of the school year:
http://www.tc.edu/rwp/assessment/08-09/benchmarks/Independent%20Reading%20Benchmarks%202008-2009.pdf
The TCRWP website has a number of other helpful resources for elementary literacy educators: http://rwproject.tc.columbia.edu.
PBS teacher website – This Public Broadcasting System-sponsored website offers thousands of local and national standards-based lesson plans, multimedia resources, and activities. It includes monthly professional development webinars and blogs focused on technology in the classroom. Check it out at www.pbs.org/teachers
Websites for teachers – Teacher Professional Development Sourcebook, a new magazine from Education Week, recommends these websites as good sources of materials for teachers:
• Wiki-Teacher – http://www.wiki-teacher.com - Created by the Clark County Schools in Nevada but open to all, this website features K-8 lesson and unit plans that are searchable by topic, level, and textbook. There are also short video clips.
• Teach-nology – http://www.teach-nology.com - This site has 28,000 free lesson plans for K-12 teachers and a variety of tips, printable worksheets, and games for all subjects.
• Curriki – http://www.curriki.org - This site has searchable collections of math, science, language arts, and social studies lesson plans and activities for all grades. Teachers can also contribute resources.
