Here is a great site from the UK. It has great ideas for all subject areas but I will concentrate on mathematics.
If you look in mathematics, there are suggestions for geometry, fractions, addition, subtraction, division and etc. You will find interactive PowerPoint presentations and so on. There are even pictures of other teachers' bulletin boards. It is worth your while to visit this site called Teaching Ideas.

Strategy Games
We have started a list of links for strategy games because we believe that game playing teaches problem solving. Children will play and learn mathematical processes without realizing it.
The games that we have included are simple. They require few materials. Classic ones, such as "Battleships", can be played with only pen and paper. This is a material readily available in any classroom.
My links about games usually go to Wikipedia. This is for two reasons. Wikipedia will explain the rules and will include links to online versions of the games. If a child does not have a partner, they can play online.
