  • Top 20 Sites for Back To School! It is hard to believe that we are weeks away from "Back to School". As we consider tools that will help to create empowering teaching/learning environments for the 2010-2011 school year;  please take the time to experiment with those shared in the blog post from the "Making Teachers Nerdy" blog. I feel that it is pretty bold to say that these 20 sites are ones that "NO Teacher Should Start the School Year Without", however,  I have to agree with Mrs. Smoke! Please take the time to consider some of these tools for your classroom, make a difference in education!
