Janine’s First Grade Annotated Websites [|www.miltonpope.net] Parents and teachers use the school updates and monthly calendars. There are also links on the website to educational websites for every level K-8. [] This is our personal webpage for entering and editing grades throughout the course of the year. Parents also have usernames and passwords to be able to check their child’s grades at home. [|www.unitedstreaming.com] Using a school membership, we are able to download and play education videos to match a given theme or unit. [|www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=jwitte@miltonpope.net&ctz=America/Chicago] This is the FREE website where I keep parents, students and other community members updated on volleyball practice and game schedules. [|www.edhelper.com] I have purchased a $20 yearly membership to this website, which is well worth it. There are daily themes as well as holiday and literature unit activities. It is great for K-12 teachers! [|www.scholastic.com] Scholastic offers many helpful ideas and resources for both teachers and parents. It is also the site I use for book orders. [|www.carlscorner.com] This website provides great resources for phonemic awareness and early reading. Most of the files are easily printable and applicable for immediate classroom usage. [|www.themailboxcompanion.com] This website requires a membership; however, it provides templates that can be used for organization, such as calendars and weekly newsletters. [|www.harcourtschool.com/storytown/] We use the Storytown reading series. Their website offers a variety of programs and extra information to compliment the stories and themes. [|www.enchantedlearning.com] Enchanted learning is a K-12 website, but the primary projects on this site are better than the others. Some of the files require a membership fee; however, others are freely printable. [|www.kinderart.com] Art is by no means my specialty. Kinder art provides projects for younger children with easy-to-follow directions. [] Hubbard’s Cupboard is actually a kindergarten site; however, it could easily be modified and used for 1st graders. The literacy and math resources are excellent. [|www.littlegiraffes.com] This website is now connected to another helpful internet source called A to Z Teacher Stuff. Little giraffes is most helpful with activities revolving around monthly holidays and themes. [|www.theteacherscorner.net] The teacher’s corner provides extra printable resources that can be used for anything from coloring pages to creating personalized puzzles.
