Do you want to find a quick lesson for the day? There is no need to reinvent the wheel. Before creating a brand new lesson, search for one using Google. To narrow your searches, try searching for file type. Enter in the search term followed by filetype:ppt to find a powerpoint presentation.
- Ex: mitosis filetype:ppt for a powerpoint on mitosis.
- Other file extensions:
- word documents: filetype:doc
- pdfs: filetype:pdf
- SMART Notebook: filetype:notebook
Great resource... and thanks for sharing how to search for a resource / file.... that's huge. While recreate the wheel?
