Hot-Spots on the Web

Lesson Plan Sources
Lesson plans can be found at multiple Web sites, including many of the sites listed under other categories. The locations below offer well-organized collections that can be searched easily for particular topics.
 

Search Engines
A search engine is an online tool that finds Web pages containing words or phrases that you specify - put phrases in quotes, such as "Civil War." Since each of the examples below has unique strengths, it makes sense to try several (the last three allow you to search using multiple search engines simultaneously).
   

Curriculum Resource Centers
There are multiple online curriculum resource centers that are maintained by professional associations, foundations, state and federal agencies, colleges and universitites. Most of these are specialized by content or teaching level, and the general sites offer resources in multiple areas.
 

Information Indexes
An Information index is simply a set of topic menus and sub-menus where you can narrow selections progressively to find what you need. Yahoo is the most popular, but there are other choices, including indexes customized for students.
