***Movie License
Agreement Our district has purchased a performance
license for 2009-2010 that allows our staff to legally show

guidelines. See list of covered producers below.

I just wanted to share a website that USD 506 put together to help teach kids the state-tested indicators. The website is http://www.506.k12.ks.us/. Scroll down to "district technology" and then click on "indicator websites." Choose your grade and you're set to go! They've compiled a list of websites with information and games per indicator. It's something the kids can do if you have extra time on the COWS or you can project some of the information on your screen for the whole class to do together. The site starts with reading, but keep scrolling and you'll see math, social studies and science.
This site also includes printables and lesson plans. Hope you find something useful!
