Teachit.co.uk – English Teaching Online
This is a great website which focuses mainly on English and Literacy. I’ve been a member for years. It has loads of brilliant lesson ideas for everyday teaching and now has it’s own section of “whizzythings” which are specifically designed to help you create resources for you IWB. You can use some of the content for free but it is well worth getting a subscription either as a single user or as a school. All of the resources are created for teachers by teachers.
