A Few New Web Sites

Tech & Learning is a great web site that provides a lot of valuable information, resources and especially web sites.  I ventured to 10 web sites but found 3 that would be of beneficial use to a variety of teachers and subjects.

All About Adolescent Literacy
Provides a variety of tools and resources, specifically Processional Development Webcasts, related to making room for adolescent literacy, english language learners, and students getting ready for college.  This web sites also provides classroom strategies related to vocabulary, comprehension, and writing at times of before reading, during reading, and after reading.  These graphic organizers can be downloaded to be used in Pages or can be downloaded and used to view/print.  Lastly this web sites provides resources for helping struggling readers, books and author features, and the strategy library.

Poetry Foundation: Children's Poetry
Provides Articles about Children's Poetry related to essays, interviews and articles.  Also showcases Children's Video related to baby poetry, children poetry, and poetry everywhere.  A great web site that provides recommended book previews, featured authors, featured videos, featured book collections and 100s of poems related to Early Readers, Young Adults, Beginning Readers, Classics and School.

SEN Teacher: Free Teaching Resources for Special Education
Provides web links, downloads, math printables, literacy printables, and other printables for student and teacher us.  You can even customize the downloadable printables based on your needs and your students' needs.  For example you can print or download and make accessible online skeleton labels, alphabet cards, and multiplication grids to name a few.

To make accessible online for downloading you want to print the file,


then click on PDF and Save as PDF,

then save the PDF onto your computer and then upload it to Google Docs to share or to SchoolFusion for the students to download
