If I were a full time classroom teacher I would use the websites available through the AEA, focusing on the website EBSCO Information Services Service. Within EBSCO there are several subcategories including, Ebsco Host 6-12, Educational Journals, Ebsco Host in Spanish, Newspaper Source Plus 3-12, Novels Plus (which includes a library of both fiction and nonfiction books), Points of View Reference Center 6-12, Explora Primary, and Explora Secondary along with several other subcategories.
Since I am a substitute teacher I rely on Kahoots to fill in a lesson or two if the sub plans left for me are inadequate. I find this to be especially useful for grades 3 - 7. I have put together several Kahoot quizzes for math, science, reading, and social studies for various grade levels. Along with quizzes and activities geared toward social skills and general knowledge depending on the need. The students seem to enjoy Kahoots, although I have found the drawback to be using teams, and creating user names. Some students try to use inappropriate user names and tend to check in on their neighbors computers for answers.
