Flip Classroom
Ted-Ed Ted-ed is a collection of educational video lessons that have been animated. Each video has an associated lesson, a Quick Quiz with multiple choice comprehension questions, Think which contains questions for critical thinking, and Dig Deeper which helps students to explore the topic further. You can re-title a lesson to fit your classroom, add content, questions, and follow-up assignments, and create a URL for your video lesson. You can also track student progress.
 * How to integrate TED-Ed into the classroom: ** TED-Ed is a fantastic new resource for the classroom. The videos can be used for flip teaching. In a flipped teaching model, the instruction is watched at home as “homework” and the practice happens in the classroom where students can receive teacher support. This means that the focus in the classroom is on higher-order thinking and learning skills instead of on instruction. Student can come to class ready for deeper inquiry, critical thinking, discussion with classmates, collaboration and get more personalized attention from the teacher.

Web Resources
iCivics toc Games include topics like: Citizenship and Participation, the Constitution and Bill of Rights, Budgeting, Foreign Policy and National Defense, Separation of Powers, the Executive Branch, the Legislative Branch, and the Judicial Branch.
 * How to integrate** iCivics **into the classroom:** iCivics is a great way to help students better understand the US government. The games are engaging, relatively quick to play (one class period), and teach everything that students need to know to play the game. Students with little or no understanding of the topic will be introduced to everything they need to know within the game.

What do you love
 * How to integrate What do you love into the classroom:** What do you love is a great tool for helping students learn about how searches work. Students can instantly see a variety of search options and can begin comparing/contrasting results from the different streams. Ask students to consider which types of searches lend themselves to each type of search (images, video, web, blogs, maps, etc.). Students can quickly look at the top items from each available stream and decide from that one point which option best fits their search needs.

WallWisher Share ideas, pose questions to the students, get their answers and give them feedback all on the same page.
 * How to integrate WallWisher into the classroom:** Create a wallwisher with the title of a book or themed work, have student search images and paste for example: regular polygons, post projects, assignments, give questions for students to post feedback evaluating a topic, student book reviews, etc.
