[|ReadWriteThink] This is a great site to find resources and maybe use on the SMART Board. A partnership started in 2002 between the International Reading Association, The National Council of Teachers, and the MarcoPolo Education Foundation created ReadWriteThink. It provides free, Internet-based material to educators, students, and parents! http://www.readwritethink.org/index.asp

Do your students need to use Flash Cards? Need some they can use online? [|Study Stack] : Some are already made in some subject areas or you can make your own. A [|Study Stack with Library Terms for kids]. A nice [|Study Stack for Library Terms]. Has the word library aides in it that may not apply to Arrowhead Library. Here is a [|Study Stack just for Library Media]. [|FlashCard DB] : Free Online Flash Cards with Spaced Repetition. Even more flashcards: [|Flashcard exchange]. Some templates: http://www.educatortemplates.com/

Tired of the same old research project? How about having you students create their own webpage? 100Mg of free space is provided by [|Google Pages]. All you need is a google e-mail account. As a teacher you could create an e-mail account and have a free page for yourself that you can create as a class project. Of course you can also set up your own wiki too. Don't know how? Ask @your library. http://pages.google.com/

[|Thesis Builder] This may be a better fit for middle and high school students to use but I can see teaching how to write a thesis statement and filling in these blanks... take a look. http://www.ozline.com/electraguide/thesis.html
