Thinkfinity
Use the search tool to find free interactive lessons. What is great about Thinkfinity is that it compiles lessons from various websites such as Read, Write, and Think. *** Just be sure to check off that you are searching for "Interactives"** @http://www.thinkfinity.org/student-interactives

SMART Exchange
Search by subject, grade level, or file type. You can also search by standards by clicking "Standard-Correlated Lessons." HOWEVER, I've noticed that not all lessons fit our standards perfectly by searching this way. @http://www.exchange.smarttech.com/

Scholastic SMART Lessons Collection
On the right on the website you COULD do a search but it's only on Google. The really great part of this web resource is the section that says **FREE lessons**. The phonics SMARTnotebook lessons are super cute and great! @http://www2.scholastic.com/browse/collection.jsp?id=447
