Teachers - this page is for YOU. If there's ever anything you would like to share with your colleagues, send Mrs. Lennon an email and a link will be added.
A word of advice - please don't limit yourself to just clicking on links in your subject area. Try another topic, like the Arts & Humanities or Vocational Studies and find a way to bring those contents into your classroom.
Frost Library Catalog
Search for topics of instruction, create a "clipboard" of titles, email your list to Mrs. Lennon, and we can check them out for you.
KET Encyclomedia
Search the website (Discovery Education, KET Teachers Domain, and KET on-demand) for resources and videos directly related to YOUR content. Ask Mrs. Lennon for the school code for Discovery Education, and remember that downloading videos is better than streaming them live. *Always preview videos before showing them to your students! *
