Web-based Educational Resources
Educators can search the web for many educational recourses. However finding recourses that will be useful to their classroom can sometimes be a challenge. I have found these four resources, which are great for my mathematics content area, but some of them offer insight on other content areas as well.

The site increases access to quality standards-based resources for teaching and learning mathematics.This site targets grades K-12 and has lessons and interactive activities for number & operations, algebra, geometry, measurement, and data analysis & probability.
