	Set up Web Page

The sites have been organized by Grade and Cluster however many of the sites...can be used across many grades.

Comments about the web sites recommended would be appreciated.

When using web sites with Elementary age students, it is important to look at the age appropriateness of the site.  It is presently difficult to find sites suitable for students who do not yet read.

Some teachers will find that some web sites are an excellent place to find some background information for the subjects they are about to teach.

It is important to give students some clear directions when using web sites.  You may wish to have specific questions, tasks or even a study guide or scavenger hunt to assist the students in finding the appropriate information on the site.
