Flocabulary
Very
cool website that has a variety of free songs and videos available for
all grade levels. I particularly like the Week in Rap which is a weekly
run-down of current events. These are all aligned to CCCS. There is
even more available with a subscription but there is also a good amount
available for free. The lyrics to the raps are printable and many have
additional links to research further. The kids really do enjoy it!

get creative! Great option for student projects.

WatchKnowLearn
Thousand of well organized
free videos to use in the classroom. Some are hosted by YouTube and
therefore not currently viewable in school. This will hopefully change
once we have access to YouTube. Still lots of helpful videos available.

Free Timeline Creation Websites
A bunch of sites to choose
from that will allow your students to create a multi-media timeline.
Many require a free sign up so it may be better for upper grades. They
look very useful so explore!
