Teaching Resources
For Every Educator

Teaching resources, including teacher-made resources and teacher-created materials, are widely available for educators everywhere, because of their easy accessibility over the internet and the very little or almost no cost required. 

Several teacher resource websites offer educational resources or worksheets for every year level and subject. Most of these are free although they may not be published without permission from the author, neither may they be sold. These sites, in fact, encourage educators to inform their colleagues about these new and creative teaching materials as well as request comments or corrections of these materials.

 Some teacher websites extensively promote submissions of ideas and input for new teaching sources. One good thing about this is that there will be more teacher-made resources checked by their own peers for quality and the best content. Some teacher sites are updated regularly, such as once a month, so that the materials are up-to-date and in tune with the many changes in the education sector. The updates are very crucial to meeting the changing needs of educators around the world.

The IB booklist is one of the best teaching resources for literary enhancement programs in schools. It can be used as a guide,  not only for IB schools but for any educational institution at its option. The list includes titles of books, by both American and foreign authors. The list may be accessed at some teacher resource websites, hence, may serve as a guide not only to educators, but for students who are looking for some advanced reading resources.

Another very useful teaching resource is the Flat Stanley activity. The Flat Stanley Project is an international literacy and community building activity wherein a student makes a flat paper character, or Flat Stanley, begins writing a journal with him for a few days, and sends both Flat Stanley and journal to a student from another school also involved in the project.

The second student finishes the journal and then returns it to the original sender. The Flat Stanley Project is not just a pen-pal activity but is also a writing and literary experience for students and a free teaching resource for schools.

Report card comments are also valuable free teacher resources obtainable from teacher resource websites. Comments are categorized according to year level and subject taught, and may be general or specific.

Tips for making one’s own comments can also be found on this website.

Books on report card comments may be bought also, but resorting to websites is more advisable, because these are updated regularly and the collection of comments grows.

 Presently, educators need not worry about obtaining good teaching resources, because there are a lot available on the internet. Teaching now is easier and more fulfilling with the help of both proven-effective, traditional teaching methods and the technological advances of our time.
