Portable Resources for International Teachers
You can’t take it all with you. That file cabinet full of lesson plans and curriculum ideas is too much to lug from school to school and country to country. This week, I asked my colleagues about their favorite web-based curriculum resources. These range from general teacher resources to specific content area resources to professional organizations. There are some obvious gaps, so if you use another great site, let me know.

Oodles... too brain fogged at the moment to recall more than a few, Periodically , I gather and organize... invariably followed by bizarre and unanticipated computer meltdown. I doubt any cause / effect relationship, but i am beginning to get just a bit superstitious.
