---------------------------------
For this, the 10th day of June, we present the Teachers.Net Classroom Project Center, a collection of chatboard resources for teachers who develop projects for the classroom. A baker's dozen of specialized project forums, plus a fast-moving general switchboard for teachers looking to implement unique or non-traditional projects.
Arts & Crafts
If you are involved in arts and crafts project in your job, this is the number one chatboard for you. Find great ideas for craft projects, share your experiences and secrets, or just chat with others who also work in Arts & Crafts.
Family Math
If your school has Family Math Night, this is a board for you. Find out ways to bring math to life for your students and their whole family.
Fieldtrips
Whether you're traveling around the world, or just on the Internet, the Fieldtrips Chatboard is a great place to find ideas for maintaining order, expanding the educational value of your trips, and sharing your experiences, concerns, and ideas.
Learning Centers
Classroom Centers are very popular for organizing the students' learning environment, and effectively capturing the students' attention and interest through creative educational units.
Grant Writing
Grant writing is an art, and a skill - master the craft of finding and landing grants and there's no limit to what you can manage in your classroom!
Fundraising
If your school is involved in fundraising for academic or extracurricular programs, this is the place too bookmark and visit frequently. Tap into our resident experts, and you'll find ways to raise money faster and easier than you could have imagined possible.
Read Across America
The popular Read Across America program was developed by the NEA to celebrate Dr. Seuss's birthday, and help encourage students to read, read, and read some more. Take part of this national movement, check out this chatboard and mark on your calendar Dr. Seuss's Birthday, March 2!
Ecology Projects
On the Ecology Projects Chatboard, every day is Earth day! Check out this board for great environmentally conscious projects, for every grade level.
100 Days
Celebrate the 100 Days of School, a special day that really counts in the life of every school year!
Traveling Buddies
Flat Stanley may be the most travelled guy on the planet. Get your traveling buddy project off the ground with the help of the Traveling Buddies Chatboard teachers.
Classroom Pets
If you have a pet in the classroom, this is a great place to find advice for care and feeding, or just share stories of pet and student interaction.
Classroom Pen Pals
One of the most popular and oldest classroom projects, the Classroom Pen Pal is as easy to develop as it is exciting and rewarding. Bookmark and participate frequently, to learn tips for easy management and practical advice for safety and security.
Postcard Projects
The colorful younger sibling of the Pen Pal Project, the Classroom Postcard Chatboard helps teachers find other teachers to share and help develop programs to share the local culture and meet people from across the state or around the world!
Project Switchboard
This general interest project forum connects teachers looking to develop classroom projects that don't fit into any of the other categories
THE LESSON BANK
While not technically part of the Project Center, the Teachers.Net Lesson bank includes many many ideas for projects under the topics listed above, and dozens of others too diverse to classify. Check out the Lesson Bank - browse by category or search by keyword - and save yourself the trouble of re-inventing the wheel. If you have a great classroom project or idea to share, please submit it to the Lesson bank, and become a part of history!
That covers the Teachers.Net Classroom Projects center, be sure to visit, bookmark, participate, and pass along the word. Your wonderful support makes this entire project work!
