Tom Daccord wrote about the site he owns:
Designed for history educators and students, Best of History Web Sites is a
useful portal that provides convenient access to many of the best history
resources online. Best of History Web Sites includes descriptions and
ratings of hundreds of excellent history-oriented web sites, all organized
into ten main categories: Prehistory, Ancient History, Medieval History, U.S
History, Early Modern European History, 20th Century History, World War II
History, Art History, General History Resources, and Maps. There are also
three special categories: Lesson Plans/ Activities, Multimedia, and
Research. Best of History Web Sites also contains a special informative
section on Teaching With Technology that offers articles and advice about
integrating computers in the classroom. In this section you will also find
links to dozens of useful resources on educational technology. Finally,
visitors to Best of History Web Sites can receive monthly e-mail updates on
history sites and technology education by filling out the contact form.

Lots of definitions and links here. A good quick reference. Information on
many literary terms is provided here and in on-line “lectures,” sometimes
with hotlinks to other related materials as well. Because this glossary is a
work in progress, new definitions and links will be added from time to time.

My friend, Andy, wrote about this site.

?I was looking for parachute games this morning, and I found this site.? I
thought it was not a bad resource for a variety of simple games for fun day
activities.? It is called Organized Children’s Games.?

My friend, Lori, found this site that would be of use to Division I
teachers.? Teachingheart.com?s Year-End Activities page is jam-packed with
ideas for the last few days left in the school year!
