This website was started by Erika Gomez-Schanne, an educator based in New Jersey. She has 14 years of experience teaching in grades kindergarten-3rd grade. Erika also has experience in bilingual and ESL education. Busy Teacher's Cafe is geared towards Kindergarten-6th grade.
The most valuable addition to this site is it's extensive amount of thematic activity and lesson ideas. Each featured theme includes many ideas for subjects such as math, literacy, art, science, and social studies. Erika also includes a list of links to other websites that contain teaching ideas for that theme.
The strategies section of the website also includes very valuable information and ideas regarding literacy teaching strategies, classroom management, and classroom organization. Each category contains many printables that assist in implementing these strategies. Some of these printables are also available in Spanish.
This website also includes a great list of links to other teaching websites organized by grade level.
The one downfall of this website is that it can be difficult to navigate and it also contains many ads that distract from the site's content.
