Websites Worth Sharing: 5 for Teacher Appreciation Week

In appreciation for all you do for Kelso kids, here are some tech tools that you might find useful.

https://classroomscreen.com/ – Many of you are already fans, but if you haven’t used it recently, check out some of the upgrades. Make this your home screen or bookmark it so you have it handy.

https://ed.ted.com/ – Student and teacher friendly TED videos. Click on the “Discover” link on the main toolbar. There are collections organized by theme and lesson plans attached to the vidoes. Take a minute to check them out, and I think you’ll enjoy what you find.

https://www.teachingbooks.net/ – Do you use certain books with your students? If you search the book name at this site, you might find some resources you could use including “meet the author” recordings and lesson resources. There is a paid version, but there are still a lot of resources available for free.

https://museumsfordigitallearning.org/ – Museums are a great teaching tool, but the logistics of getting a class of students to a museum can be very challenging. This site provides resources for lessons and activities that are based off of actual museum collections.

https://spinnerwheel.com/  This site provides a customizable spinner tool. If you login with your Google account, you can save your spinners. Here is a video that explains some of the option: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHm0wCbsd5E
