Web site offers free online math lessons

Although this item deals with math, the link itself has other disciplines as well:
This web site offers free online math lessons. The California-based Web site Brightstorm offers online math help for students with video lessons created by teachers. Most of the site's math lessons are free, but the company also offers fee-based lessons in preparation for standardized tests. "Anybody who is confused with their homework can come to our site, search for the concept, find it really quickly, and then they can get an explanation that is concise and to the point from a really talented presenter who is also a great teacher," http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=news/drive_to_discover&id=7196389 or http://www.brightstorm.com/

SMART EXCHANGE




Find resources for your classroom and connect with other teachers who use SMART boards. On this website you can search for lessons, images and web pages that can be used with the SMART interactive white board. You can browse by keyword, subject, grade or NYS core curriculum. Teachers can also upload and share a resource that they have found successful or connect with other teachers on the message board. This website is a great compliment to the SMART Notebook lesson activities on the SmartTech website.

View,Save and interact with SMART Notebook files online.  This website will provide a way for you to access update and edit your SMART notebook files when you are on a machine that may not have SMART notebook software loaded.  This website can also be used by parents/students to view lessons at home that you have created in SMART notebook and posted to Moodle
