Education Appreciation for Teachers:  EducationAppreciation.com

Education Appreciation for Parents:  EdHelpForParents.com

The above websites were created specifically for Texas teachers and parents and students.  Education Appreciation has been maintaining these two websites for over seven years without cost or obligation to Texas schools or teachers through local sponsorships funded by a single business.  The TEKS/TAKS Directory on the EducationAppreciation.com website, organized by grade, subject and objective, is the only resource we are aware of that has a set of web links for each part of every student testing objective.  The EdHelpForParents.com website, with the Homework Helper Directory, has outside the classroom exercises and review organized by grade and by subject plus much more as a way to get the parent and student together outside the classroom.   You can review these two sites by going to either address and using your school's passcode: MARFA.
