Kia Ora, Welcome to this searchable database of 5,000 reviewed websites sorted into curriculum areas from New Zealand. To get included in this database, sites must meet 23 quality criteria regarding layout, language level, content and educational approach. Each site receives a content rating out of 5 (5+ being the highest rating) and a presentation rating out of 5. There is also an age rating for each site. Ratings are well annotated and well written.
Teachers.net Lesson Bank
http://teachers.net/lessons
Over 1,500 teacher-submitted lesson plans are available here in a searchable collection for use with students in preschool through secondary school. Sorted by grade level and curriculum categories, the collection easily allows teachers to find the information they need about lessons and activities. And if you can't find a lesson, just submit it to the Lesson Plan Request Board. This is a great place not only to find resources, but to share your own.
