Networks for Teachers By Teachers (sampler)

Bread Loaf Rural Teacher Network

The Bread Loaf Rural Teacher Network is a national organization of teachers sponsored by Middlebury College's Bread Loaf School of English and is dedicated to foster fundamental improvement in the quality and educational and career development opportunities for all school-age youth, and to increase access to these opportunities for young people in low-income rural communities.

California Subject Matter Projects

The California Subject Matter Projects is a professional development network made up of nine discipline-specific projects.

Geography Alliance Network

Geography Alliance Network, sponsored by National Geographic, has built a national network of K-12 teachers, college geographers, and others dedicated to improving geography education. Operating as grassroots organizations, the network promotes geography education at local, state, and national levels.

Teachers Helping Teachers

Teachers Helping Teachers, unlike the other networks above, includes all school subjects, sometimes just with links to other repositories. Resources for lower elementary school students are provided.

National Writing Project

The National Writing Project, another professional development network, serves teachers of writing at all grade levels, primary through university, and in all subjects. Its mission is to improve student achievement by improving the teaching of writing and improving learning in the nation's schools.

PE Central

Even physical education teachers can find resources for their students at PE Central.

Google Groups

Many teachers have turned to Google Groups to create on-line communities and networks on every subject from Astronomy to Zoology.
