Wonderful Webware for all:
Maps 101 is a great
site to locate maps for all ages. You can even find
up-to-date maps of current events as well as ancient times.
Brainpop is an awesome
site for short clips to go with your lessons for all
subjects. Students can easily do this independently at any
grade level.
SOLpass is a terrific
site to review SOL's for grades 2 - 5. Complete with study
guides and wonderful games this site from the Virginia
Department of Education quizzes students on specific SOL
knowledge. I highly recommend this site for all students.
Kids Infobits is a wonderful data base for students to
do research from periodicals, flags and symbols, maps, and
images.
NetTrekker is a
terrific search engine for teachers. You can search by SOL
for great lesson plans or learning activities. My favorite
search engine for educational sites.
United Streaming
lets you download video clips for your lessons specific to
your SOL's. I rank this very high and easy to use. The
students really love the clips.
Marcopolo
is a very handy site for all kinds of lessons and activities
for every subject. Professional Development is also
offered here as well as a search engine for SOL based
activities. Marcopolo has also partnered with ArtsEdge
(Arts Integration), EconEdLink (Economics), EdSITEment
(Humanities), Illuminations (Mathematics),
Read*Write*Think (Reading and Language Arts), Science
Netlinks (Science), and Xpeditions (Geography).
Virginia Department of
Education has great information for parents and
teachers. This is where you can locate the "Essential
Questions and Knowledge" for the SOL's which are wonderful
tools to use in lesson plans and testing. Most of the SOL
questions come from the "Essential Knowledge" found on DOE's
website. It also has many other area to help you with
education. Check it out!
