We have purchased this to support science lessons in the classroom, and it is aligned with the NGSS standards. Every lesson begins with a “Mystery” that hooks your students. A narrator then tells an unforgettable story with stunning images and videos and punctuated with opportunities for discussion. Every lesson concludes with simple hands-on activities designed to use supplies you already have (or are easy to get). I am the administrator for this product, so let me know if you need help getting in!

Khan Academy is a free and incredible resource for Math, Science and Social Studies.  It is slowly rolling out ELA content as well, and 2nd - 9th grade ELA is now in 'beta'! You can use Google Classroom to create a classroom in Khan Academy, select the content you'd like to bring into your class (ex: 6th Grade Math or US Government and Civics).  You can then search through that curriculum to find just the lessons you'd like to assign to complement what is being taught in your class and use it for virtual learning, for review, or for re-teaching.
