This is a mega site for teachers. There is a wealth of materials that are free for teachers to use and download. It is multi-grade and miltidisciplinary. Because it is a product of the BBC, it offers materials from a global perspective. The only thing that was a minus is that it takes way too long to view a video.

If you live outside the U.K., you can still access BBC's Learning Zone video collection in your classroom using www.youtube.com/user/teachers .

Type in the clip number and subject that you are searching for and enjoy watching their video. You can also skip beginning Ads and go directly to the video you want to watch.
