I have been wanting to make a class website for a while now. This summer it became my summer project. There are quite a few free sites that make it easy for anyone to set up their website. After playing around with a few i found the one I preferred was Weebly.
There are a lot of free themes you can use and it's quite easy to change things around. I also like that the free web address you get is short. It's basically 'yourname.weebly.com'. Shorter than a lot of other free sites.
You can find free clip art on the web. There are quite a few that are free for educational use. My favourite so far is http://classroomclipart.com/ .
After spending a few hours setting it up and adding the pages I wanted I know I'll be able to just log on once a week to make the few changes easily without it taking up a lot of extra time. An easy way to connect home and school!
Common Core Workbooks
Have fun teaching is a fantastic website with many free materials and resources. I go to it often!
They are now offering for a low price some common core workbooks for every grade. It's a great timesaver for all teachers who have to teach to the common core.
