Free Teacher Resource For YOU!

After a few years of teaching I realized that the most valuable resource to other teachers is my knowledge of the web. I have put together a Teacher Toolbar so that I can share my personal favorites and some fantastic free teacher resource websites. Below is a short list of some of the weblinks you can find in the Teacher Toolbar.

• 10-20 Web-links for Literacy, Math, Science, Social Studies. That is 100 Websites just for teaching those content areas! Some of the links include interactive lessons and activities for teaching time, money, good writing habits, the weather process... the list goes on. I included my most preferred links in this toolbar!
• Resource Links for Integrating Technology - and for all the lucky teachers out there with access to a smart board you can check out the terrific links with over a 100 interactive activities for the smart board.
• Build your own website for FREE..using one of the six providers that i included in the Teacher toolbar.
• Find great activities to pump up your word wall.
  
• STOP searching the internet for First Week lesson ideas... I searched them for you and included some of the best links for you!
• Most Importantly...this toolbar is constantly updated, so if you come across a resource that you would like access to often send it to me in an email and I will personally update the toolbar.

What To Do With Free Teacher Resource

As a teacher, I love searching the internet for free teacher resources!
It has become an addiction! Over the past few years I have signed up for and received hundreds of teacher freebies. I dont always use them, but you just never know when you might need a poster about "How Plastic Is Made" - sounds cool right?!

..I'm just not sure my third grade students will fully understand the jargon plastered on the poster.. at least it looks cool. Sorry... I got a little side tracked.

Recently, my husband came to me with one demand...it was that I stop having all of these free things sent to our house so that they will pile high in our garage with a promise that I will one day find a use for it in my classroom. I know...how mean could he be...stop signing up for free stuff?!? Well, I can understand, just this past year I gave 15 boxes of free teacher resources that i had collected over the years to a good teacher friend that was just starting her career. She was so appreciative and wondered how I got all this incredible stuff... I think my husband was just as appreciative - if not more...

Well since I can no longer bring home free stuff for teachers I thought I would share all of the free teacher resources that I find online. I even made a teacher resource over the summer in hopes of making all teachers lives easier... you can check it out at www.teachersfirstday.com

Oh, and you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed... because I'll be posting tons of free teacher resource here all school year and throughout the summer!
