Trilobyte Fossil Site
Website: http://www.trilobites.info
When teaching about fossils and Dinosaur bones it is very cool to have actual fossils to show the kids. I love Trilobites because firs of all they predate the dinosaurs, and second of all it is a realistic fossil to obtain for classroom use. I have seen specimens on eBay for as low as $10. I have a rather large collection that I dug from a hillside in Central Utah. It was a commercial quarry that cost $35.
Finding the fossils is easy but finding good detailed information about these fossils has been difficult. Trilobite.info has made a great website that gives a tremendous amount of background on trilobites, there variation, and there history.
