TeachKidsMath is a teaching and education website by a recently retired middle school math teacher who spent 20 years as a Marine officer before becoming a teacher. The site is an archive of his teaching and leadership experience with ideas, opinions, anecdotes, reproducibles, resources and some very original classroom tools. Check out the self-made HTML Jeopardy game - fully downloadable with simple instructions to customize it for any classroom. The content emphasizes math but also discusses leadership, classroom management, homework, parents and other contemporary issues.

Outdoor, travel and history site by two retired Boomers, one a retired teacher. It combines geocaching and related activities with history, travelogues, tips and commentary. Our quests include historical sites, forts, battlefields, ghost towns, parks, urban exploration and back country wilderness. We seek out little known places or events to explore and write about. The more challenging they are, the better we like it. We hope to promote lifelong learning and curiosity about our world, especially in young people. If you are looking for ideas to teach and motivate kids, get them active outside and have some fun together, this site offers a lot. There's no armchair traveling. We've been to every place on these pages. The pictures and content are ours. Most of it is Off the Beaten Path.
