Educational Games

General Websites of Note:  These are a great spot to look for activities for you kids.  You may browse and then link them directly to the game that is appropriate because I find that the vast majority of students, when faced with a game that will help them with Algebra or Coloring, will choose coloring.  And then, will complain, "This website is too easy..."  Challenge them, guide them!  Be specific...

All sites are middle school appropriate.  Elementary sites are grouped below.

Reading / Language Arts


Health

http://www.playnormous.com/games/brain-gain Test your brain with this online web game that's all about health! In Brain Gain.

Math 

CoolMath.com has many games and tutorials, but it's easy for the kids to get focussed on only strategy games and only play puzzles instead of working those math skills.
PurpleMath.com Helping students gain understanding and self-confidence in algebra.

Hoodamath.com

Math Playground  Math Playground is an action-packed site for elementary and middle school students. Play a math game, solve a logic puzzle, and have some fun!


Multi-subject:

BrainPopJr.com    BrainPOP creates animated, curriculum-based content that engages students, supports educators, and bolsters achievement.
SheppardSoftware.com has activities from Pre-K to Middle School, in all subject areas.  Excellent resource, my top recommendation for an educational website.  Works great on a SmartBoard or IWB too.

FreeRice.com not only quizzes kids with increasing difficult questions, but even has classic art work identification.
