McGraw-Hill AR Online is a web-based platform that offers augmented-reality styled learning activities across English Language Arts, math, science, and social studies. It mirrors many of the experiences available in the McGraw-Hill AR mobile app, making them accessible from a browser on Chromebooks or desktops. The site includes dozens of interactive lessons, such as models of the human eye, photosynthesis, and historical events that allow students to explore concepts in immersive, multisensory ways. For classrooms with limited mobile devices, mharonline.com ensures students can still engage deeply with AR-style content on their regular computers.

In the Classroom
Before a hands-on experiment, have students explore the Photosynthesis or Human Body Systems AR model. Students can rotate, zoom, and label key parts in pairs, then discuss what they predict will happen in the real experiment. Assign an AR model (such as Erosion or Forces and Motion) and have students identify key academic terms within the scene. Students record definitions, draw diagrams, or create digital flashcards using tools like Canva for Education, reviewed here. After exploring a model, students can write or record short reflections describing what they observed and how the visualization deepened their understanding.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

The MackinMaker Free Maker Resources page provides a rich collection of no-cost STEAM/STEM supports and printable tools for K-12 classrooms. Teachers will find Maker Journals to guide students through ideation, creation, iteration, and sharing; challenge cards tailored for different grade bands; fun downloadable coloring and maze sheets tied to maker themes; and product help guides (videos, tutorials, FAQs) to support implementation of maker tools. Whether you're just getting started or looking to deepen your makerspace, these resources are ready to integrate into lessons and help scaffold student exploration.
tag(s): journals (19), makerspace (39), STEM (343)
In the Classroom
Give each student a blank maker journal (from the MackinMaker download). Start with a "brainstorm" page: students sketch out or list ideas for something they'd like to build, experiment with, or improve. Use one of the challenge cards as a five or ten-minute warm-up. Have students select a challenge card at random and attempt to prototype a solution using simple materials (such as paper, tape, and straws). After students pick a challenge, have them build a first version, then use their maker journal to reflect on what worked, what didn't, and what they'd change. Then have them re-design and rebuild.

Superstructures is an online platform offering AI-infused, whole-class thinking routines designed to foster collaborative discussion and deepen student reasoning. Teachers pick a "structure" tailored to a thinking skill or academic standard, launch it, and let students contribute in real time while an AI assistant (Soop) helps guide the flow. The tool supports any subject and helps energize lesson hooks, formative assessments, or practice blocks. It also gives teachers real-time insights into student responses to inform discussion.
tag(s): artificial intelligence (257), collaboration (105), graphic organizers (55), mind map (31), teaching strategies (67)
In the Classroom
Start a new unit by launching a "See, Think, Wonder" Superstructure using an image, short video clip, or text excerpt. Have students post their observations and inferences live, then discuss patterns that emerge. Create a discussion Superstructure in which each student must respond to a prompt from a rotating viewpoint (e.g., character perspectives in a novel, perspectives on a historical issue). The AI assistant helps keep the debate balanced and on topic. Have students connect new vocabulary terms in a concept-mapping activity, using examples, synonyms, and visuals to deepen understanding.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

Latimer is an artificial intelligence platform built around a large language model (LLM) designed with inclusivity, cultural diversity, and historical depth at its core. Unlike many mainstream AI tools, Latimer's training data intentionally includes voices, perspectives, and histories from underrepresented communities to produce responses that are more accurate, culturally fluent, and less biased. Use this resource much like other chatbot tools for idea generation, writing support, research assistance, and inquiry-based exploration. Latimer also offers APIs and partnerships (such as with Grammarly and organizations like Black Girls Code) to extend its use in classrooms and beyond, emphasizing inclusive engagement with technology. Free plans include 10 monthly responses.
tag(s): artificial intelligence (257), bias (30), cultures (279), diversity (53), perspective (26)
In the Classroom
Use Latimer to generate multiple perspectives on a historical event or social issue, then have students discuss how background and lived experience can shape interpretation. Have students use Latimer.ai to generate research questions or organize notes, then locate and cite evidence from trusted sources to support their findings. Use Latimer as a case study to explore ethical AI use, representation in technology, and responsible decision-making, connecting directly to digital citizenship standards.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

The SMART Goals Worksheet from Lake Superior State University is an easy-to-use tool that helps students set clear and realistic goals. It guides them to make goals that are Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Time-Bound. The worksheet asks simple questions, such as the goal, progress measurement criteria, and the goal date to complete the project. It also includes a section for creating an action plan that lists steps to take, potential challenges, and helpful resources. This worksheet is useful for teaching students how to plan, stay focused, and work toward their goals in an organized way.
tag(s): thinking skills (86)
In the Classroom
Have students brainstorm personal, academic, or classroom goals (for example, reading more, improving writing, or being kinder on the playground). Then guide them through completing the SMART Goals Worksheet together to turn a simple idea into a clear, structured goal. Have students pair up to share their SMART goals and action plans. Partners can give friendly feedback by checking if the goals are specific, measurable, and realistic. Create a "Goal Wall" where students post their goals (or just the focus area, like "Reading" or "Organization"). Update the wall as students reach milestones to celebrate effort and growth.

The TTSReader Player is a free, web-based text-to-speech tool that lets users paste or load text, documents, or even webpages to be read aloud. One helpful feature is the option to switch to a free voice (non-premium). You can click on the voice selector, choose a free voice, and it will continue to work across different URLs without needing to be reset each time. When premium voices are selected, the site may prompt you to sign in with Google to unlock them, but the free voices remain usable without signing in.

In the Classroom
Upload a short story, article, or poem into TTSReader and play it aloud for the class. Have students follow along with the text to build fluency and listening comprehension. Provide students with complex texts (like historical documents or scientific articles) and let them use TTSReader independently. They can pause, replay, and annotate, making it easier to engage with challenging content. Have students paste their own essays or reports into TTSReader. Hearing their writing read back helps them catch errors, improve sentence flow, and strengthen revisions.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
