As I was preparing a list of interactive web sites for an upcoming blog entry (hopefully, next week), I came across several web sites and short items that I think you’ll find interesting. It’s a diverse lot, but with some useful… and some fun… ideas.
The October 1, 2007 update from TeachersFirst (http://www.teachersfirst.com/update.cfm) includes a short course--Rubrics to the Rescue--for creating and implementing rubrics as an assessment tool. See http://www.teachersfirst.com/lessons/rubrics/
Their Featured Sites for the Week of September 30, 2007
(http://www.teachersfirst.com/feature.cfm) include a very useful site--Safe Teens--about Internet safety for teens. Even if you know this topic well, this is worth examining… and sharing. See http://www.teachersfirst.com/getsource.cfm?id=8462
They also featured a fun site--Fake Out!--which is great for building vocabulary. Your students can even participate by making up some of the “incorrect” definitions for words to be featured in upcoming weeks and submitting them. I had fun at this one! See http://www.teachersfirst.com/getsource.cfm?id=8590
Teacher Magazine led me to the Time magazine archive. See
http://www.teachermagazine.org/tm/articles/2006/12/01/03tools-3.h18.html
This is a free database of the almost 300,000 stories published since 1923. You can search by topic or keywords or by date. These stories--which are history for us--were current events when the articles were written. That changes the perspective!
Teacher Magazine also published at
http://www.teachermagazine.org/tm/articles/2007/01/01/04classtech.h18.html a good article--What Could Go Wrong?--about taking elementary students into the computer lab. The author has some good ideas for saving your sanity!

Lesson Plans, Interactive Web Sites, and Other Good Ideas
Three sources on the web are highlighting some very good web sites for the classroom. Check out these resources for all grades--both elementary and secondary--and for teachers as well.
TEACHERSFIRST web site (http://www.teachersfirst.com/index.cfm)…
http://www.zerofootprintkids.com/kids_home.aspx
Zero Footprint: Kids Calculator - Grades 3 - 8
What impact does your lifestyle—and that of your students--have on our environment? This interactive online calculator can help your students look at their use of natural resources, land, water, and trees after they answer questions about transportation, what they eat, what they throw away, what they use, and home and school. They can then compare their “carbon footprint” to the averages in other nations.
http://www.yale.edu/ynhti/curriculum/units/1986/4/86.04.07.x.html
Painless Writing - Grades 3 - 9
This site has both old and new ways for teachers to get students writing painlessly. The procedures, lessons, prompts, and interesting combinations of approaches may be just what you’ve been trying to find.
