The first four were taken from a nice tech blog I follow: Cult of Pedagogy.
GOOGLE TOUR CREATOR
If you are familiar with Google Expeditions, Tour Creator is a tool you should look into. This tool helps you create your own VR tours. Google cardboards are a very affordable way to use VR in the classroom once you have created a tour.

GEOGUESSR
A very fun geography game that uses Google Street View to drop you somewhere in the world. The challenge is to figure out where you are. You can drive down the road to check out the scenery and signs but can not zoom out. Once you think you know where you are drop a pin on a world map and it gives you a score.

WEBJETS
Webjets is a great tool for group projects. It is an easy way to get all ideas and digital materials all in one place no matter what they are. This is very much like Padlet but free for educators.

PROWRITINGAID
A very nice writing tool that has a free version that if you are an english teacher you should check out. To be honest I should probably start using this on these emails I send out :)
