1. A good way to incorporate technology into teaching first graders how to read is to use a program online that allows the students to read along with a story shown on the computer screen. The computer reads the story out loud and highlights the word being said. This way while the students are reading they will know that they are reading the story correctly.

2. Using email or video conferencing is a great way to contact pen pals in a country that is being studied in social studies.

3. Students can use a digital camera to go on a science scavenger hunt, and take pictures of different parts of nature or science related things. They can then use the pictures to create a powerpoint presentation to share what they have learned.

4. Elementary School students can use puzzlemaker.com to practice vocabulary and spelling words by creating their own word searches.

5. Funbrain.com has a tic tac toe game that is great practice for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems.
