Elective One- Instruction-Teacher Sites

http://www.busyteacherscafe.com

This was a great web site. I am will use this for my preschooler’s I teach now. It was a site off schools that had every class room listed. The grades went from Pre-k until 5^th grade. The three great things about it were; had kids songs on each link, get a classroom tour/information, and it had the whole school and every class in the school. It has so much more to offer. Some recommendations for the site would be to narrow it down at little, had no type of technical help, and it did not have special’s listed (physical education, art, music). It also had free lesson plans by teachers to check out. This website is very creative and most have taken the teachers a lot of time.

This website was very informative. It is geared toward physical education teachers K-12. It has many lesson plans and a physical activity that teaches made. When one first goes to the site it does not look like a teacher made site. One has to go into the actual activity to get the teacher made enrichments. Some great things about the site were: many ideas for physical educators, has specific examples and actual sheet for the activity done by teachers, and if you need help it has help related web sites. Some recommendations for this site would be not to have so much information, has to much free offers on the site, and it should state what grade level elementary, middle or high school.
