Great Newsletter for Educators

Answers.com is called "an encyclopdictionalmanacpedia" which means it tries to have all sorts of information for you. It has a great teacher spot at www.teachers.answers.com that contains tools for teachers, lesson plans, free posters (Write it Right; Etymology: Breaking it down; Citations), links to teacher/educational blogs, NYPublic Library's Homework Help site; and more. Best of all it offers monthly newsletters chockfull of information. You can sign up for the various newsletters by going to its main site at www.answers.com and clicking on newsletters. I have linked to the October newsletter in the link section so you can see it.

For grades 5-12, there is a great lesson plan for teaching online searching on the main teachers page complete with a downloadable movie and lesson plans, posters, etc. Scroll to the bottom of the main page.

Hope you all get a chance to check out this site. I think you will be coming back for more. Don't forget to sign up for the monthly newsletter.
