I've moved to Glendover Elementary and back teaching in the computer lab. Wonderful! I have each class in the building once every 6 days for 50 minutes. Students are provided a task whereby they have to use tech skills to learn about, investigate, research or practice content. Check out the lesson plans on the main page of "Joy of Teaching Technology in the Classroom."
You'll be able to keep up with sites we use this year in the computer lab by going to http://teach.fcps.net/trt18/glendover/glendover.htm
Sites I've used a lot so far this year: Brainy Betty has created and collected a ton of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint templates and graphics. You will also find various backgrounds to use in PowerPoint and on web pages. One of our teachers like to present flashbacks, daily questions, to her student via power points and she wanted different backgrounds to use. Shodor: A National Resource for Computational Science Education presently offers 149 interactive tools. Students can show the various regions of Kentucky when using this site.
