Instructional Tools

Over the course of the simeaster our class has looked at some really great web sites that are useful for all different types of classes, learning style, and age groups. Although I may not be able to use all of them in my classroom there is a lot of different resource in website on the internet. I have a lot of favorites but I picked three to share with you. Feel free to take a look around, who knows you may find a new website to use in your own classroom!

This is a lesson plan website which had a lot of great ideas for lessons in your classroom. they had all different subjects and age groups.

There are all kinds of web quests but i found one that I, personally would use in my classroom, music is a big part in my life and is a huge influence on our culture. So when i found this web quest I thought it would be a good site to share. The quest itself isn't very fancy or high tech but I believe it is simple to understand and navigate.

My third website i found is great for younger kids. there is all different subjects from learning the capitals to learning astronomy games. It has educational games and learning tools. kids will think they get to play games in school when really they were learning. this site has every topic. If i were to teach elementary school I would definitely use this site.
