My students find the lessons to be interesting and often full of discovery. I like them because I rarely experience unpleasant surprises when implementing the lessons I choose.

Same with my students, its always a pleasent experience for them when I use these lessons.

Apples and Oranges

The one poster was right--- Kathy Schrock's Guide for Educators is a portal to many valid, expert-created, tried-and-true sites. It does include lesson plan sites, but is more an organized group of links, by content area, to the best of the best. (I have been at it a long time!) I think it is like comparing apples to oranges to compare my portal site to the lesson plan sites like ReadWriteThink and Thinkfinity.

Indeed above said pattern of nomenclature is rather suited and better by many means and for understandable reasons there more research should be done for the names of the websites.

I like the simplicity of the thinkfinity site and I found a lot of valuable information to help myself and my parents with reading to young children. I liked the suggestesd activities.

Difficult decision, Read Write Think and Thinkfinity are both excellent sources, but I probably access readwritethink.org a bit more often.
