History Matters: The U.S. Survey Course on the Web

From site: 

Designed for high school and college teachers and students of U.S. history survey courses, this site serves as a gateway to web resources and offers unique teaching materials, first-person primary documents, and guides to analyzing historical evidence.

We emphasize materials that focus on the lives of ordinary Americans and actively involve students in analyzing and interpreting evidence. We welcome your participation in expanding and improving the site.

BOHWS has been recommended by The Chronicle of Higher Education, The National Council for the Social Studies, The British Library Net, The New York Public Library, the BBC, Princeton University, and many others.

TEACH Engineering

TeachEngineering.org has a searchable, digital library collection of standards-based engineering resources for use by K-12 teachers to help make STEM come alive. The resources include a broad range of curricula, multi-week units, lessons plans, activities and living labs. A unique feature is the Maker Challenges – teacher-prompted, open-ended project ideas and problems for students to solve in a self-directed, thinking-with-their-hands way, guided by the engineering design process.

Initiated by the merging of K-12 engineering curricula created by four universities, the collection continues to grow and evolve over time with new additions from other universities, and input from teachers who use the curricula in their classrooms.

MATC Electronic Bookshelf

The Electronic Bookshelf consists of units that contain lesson plans, text, and interactives on cross-curricular math topics.  Some of the topics include engineering, math and art, math and music, business and economics, history and geography, and more. This work was supported in part by the National Science Foundation.

K-12 Energy Lesson Plans

On this site you’ll find links to more than 200 lesson plans, activities, videos and articles on energy efficiency and renewable energy for grades K-12. Each of the lessons includes a short summary that identifies curriculum integration, time, materials, and national standards.
