Searching through the Integration corner I found the Burlington County Library Internet for kids. I like this website because it teaches kids the basics of the Internet. The website shows students how to practice using the mouse, learn how to scroll, and how to use links. Students who use this site will have a basic understanding of the Internet and what it is about. In my classroom I would use this website. I would take a day and go to the computer lab and let the students search and play with the website and see what they learn and if they like it. That way if the students needed help I would be there to assist them. Once they were comfortable with the website they could use it elsewhere than school. This website provides many useful features that will keep the students entertained and they will want to use the website to learn more about using the Internet and the many features it has to offer. Another website I found that I would like to share is Surfing for ABCs. This website is very beneficial for students who are learning their ABCs. The website provides and example for each letter and what the letter stands for. This website is great and I would use it to help my students learn. The integration corner has many useful websites but searching through them I found two that are beneficial and will help many students as they continue through school.
I also liked the Burlington County Library website. It has something for all ages. It covered many different things the students and their parents could use. It is interactive and would hold younger kids attention.
ReplyDeleteI love the fact that there are sites that teach kid's how to use the internet! I think it is wonderful that they are teaching them to use the internet and to use it safely. I also agree that things like this site are great for all ages!
ReplyDeleteI agree with both of you that the websites would work for all ages. Both websites are great for helping the kids learn and yes the parents can also help their children with the websites.
