I wanted to use websites that were focused on kids. Since I will be teaching elementary. I'm not sure what level of teaching we as a group would like to focus on. If found a few websites that are focus on children's learning. Are we just focusing on the concepts as presenting it to students? Or are we finding websites that just relate to our project?
