My Favorite Internet Teaching Resource(s)

My favorite teaching resource is PBS Kids



PBS Kids is a real good source to go to if you're looking for activities for your classroom, media for the subject you are teaching, and lesson plans for the future. The thing that separates PBS Kids from all the other teaching resources is their search bar! In the search bar you can choose what grade you want, the subject AND the media type.


In my own personal experience I recall using PBS Kids to help me find ideas to come up with a lesson plan and have a "cute" little activity on the side. Currently I am an intern at Grace E. Hardeman and I help out with a 4th grade class. When I arrive the students are learning math and my objective was to find a way to help teach 3 digit long division. I went to PBS Kids and followed these simple steps.


  1. Go to the website - www.pbs.org/teachers
  2. Select your kids grade level
  3. Select your current subject
  4. Choose the media type you'd like
  5. Browse all the different ideas and select one or more that you would like!
PBS Kids is simply as pie! They make life easy for you, all you have to do is get crackin'!
