Grades
4 to 12In the Classroom
Use the handouts under the ESL heading as study guides for students trying to remember English conjugations. Have students practice the words with paper or online flashcards.

KidPub
Grades
1 to 12In the Classroom
This site would be an excellent motivating tool for students participating in writing and literature. Save the site as a learning center or station, and allow students both to peruse the stories and submit their own stories to be published. Stories are separated by genre, making it easier to tailor student's focus during a particular unit. During a poetry unit, instruct students to examine only the poetry and to submit their own. Very useful site to inspire and motivate students through the use of their peer's work!Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
