 * TED-Ed** What I love most about TED-Ed videos are how they address questions from our everyday lives. Topics include “Does grammar matter?” and “What are those floaty things in your eyes?” This is a great place to find resources that connect to the real world.
 * Smithsonian Education** With videos for teachers and students this channel has lots to choose from. You’ll find Online Conference Series on topics like Climate Change and Diplomacy in Action. There are also short clips on events like The March on Washington that include historian interviews and primary source documents.
 * Crash Course** This YouTube channel includes videos that provide an introduction to different topics. They have a section on Economics, Chemistry, and plenty of Social Studies topics. These videos are around 10-15 minutes and includes speakers and animation.
 * Discovery Channel** I recently featured some fantastic virtual reality videos from Discovery but their YouTube channel is equally awesome. Quick clips from //MythBusters// or //Racing Extinction// can kick off a new lesson or energize students mid-unit.
 * Common Sense Media** You may be familiar with Common Sense Media’s digital citizenship curriculum and their YouTube channel has lots of resources too. The short clips on different topics like oversharing and posting online are perfect for teachable moments in your classroom.
 * Education Week** On this YouTube channel teachers can find information on new education initiatives and interviews with educators. It’s a great space for inspiration or clarification on big ideas.

 * United States Holocaust Memorial Museum
 * PBS Math Club
