Education Resources gives educators access to approximately 300,000 standards-aligned open resources for the classroom, including lesson plans, assessments, worksheets, and more. You can easily find relevant materials using filters for grade level, your school district, subject, standards and more – then easily insert into OneNote for classroom use.
In Education Resources, you can also:
-
Organize resources in different collections.
-
Upload resources to share with the worldwide teaching community.
Note: the Upload feature is currently in preview and must be enabled by your IT Admin in the Microsoft 365 admin center.
