Word Magnets
http://www.triptico.co.uk/flashFiles/wordMagnets/Word%20Magnets.swf

This site is just perfect for working with words and a SMARTBoard. Put your text or words in at the first and you're off to the wall to arrange your words. They also don't stick and fall off!

The background also features some great organizers for working with your magnets.

 


The Best of History
http://www.besthistorysites.net/index.shtml

Imagine all of the best websites devoted to the study of history all in one spot. That's the claim of this website. It's one of the best indexes for this sort of thing that I've seen in a long time. History and Social Studies teachers will really like this.

Glutton for Books?
http://www.bookglutton.com/

If you can't get enough books, or perhaps you're interested in reading a book online, then this is the place to head. There are some commercial offerings but you'll find lots of books for free as well.

In addition to reading them online, feel free to just in and discuss your reading as well.

For the new Computer Studies, courses, here's an interesting way to introduce the concept of advanced encryption.

At Jeff Moser's blog, he's created "a play in 4 acts" that describes the standards. This is something nicely off the wall for a computer studies resource.
