Thinkfinity’s Awareness Session for Educators

Thinkfinity is an online portal that contains 1000's of free material for every core subject.

Its content partners include: ArtsEdge, EconEdLink, EDSITEment, Illuminations, Literacy Network, ReadWriteThink, ScienceNetLinks, Smithsonian’s History Explorer (new!), and National Geographic Xpeditions. It also offers professional development.

The goals are to train classroom and pre-service teachers to use resources, develop a MA network of Thinkfinity trainers, align Thinkfinity resources to MA curriculum frameworks, and to help teachers locate resources to support student learning.

New features of note are myThinkfinity, where one can login, save resources, and further customize the site. Smithsonian's History Explorer is a new content partner. Also, many lessons align with state standards, and more are added as states refine their own.

Why is this important? Share it with your teachers. The portal leads to 55,000+ lessons and activities. Use it yourself. There's something for everyone here. Oh yeah, and it's FREE! :-)
