Kathy Schrock's Guide for Educators
www.school.discovery.com/schrockguide

In my opinion this is one of the best and easiest sites for educators on the Internet. Kathy is a teacher on the Cape and updates the website frequently.

Layered Curriculum (Current Brain Research)
www.Help4teachers.com

Looking for help on providing for all the different ability, interest, special ed., levels in the classroom? There's also current information about brain research.

Beginning Teacher's ToolBox
www.inspiringteachers.com

This is from a publishing company so expect ads but there are some good ideas and even some good resources on the site. (The music is a little annoying though. I turned it way down.)

Mentor Support Center
www.teachers.net

Check out the new teacher support center on the site. If you're interested in chat room support this may be just your thing.

I Love Teaching
www.iloveteaching.com

When it's late at night and you need a little inspiration or help you might want to check out this site.

What to Expect Your First Year
www.ed.gov/pubs/FirstYear/

The US Dept of education has put together a free on-line book of suggestions, ideas and tips for your first year.

ThinkQuest
www.thinkquest.org

This site has nothing to do with "new teachers" but it's fascinating to see what web sites have been created by students across the world. You'll also find some good information for students on math, genetics and even diversity* on this site.
