PBS KIDS Lab

From eschoolnews.com:  "PBS has expanded its KIDS Lab website, which helps children ages 2-8 develop their math skills, to include more resources for parents and educators. And this week's Newslines feature advice on preparing for online assessments and using Quick Response codes for school communications."


I saw many games that the students could play as well as apps that are available for any ipads/ipod touches that we may be getting.

Mount Rushmore

Mount Rushmore

You can now take a virtual tour of Mt. Rushmore in this new site!  I've linked to both the explanation of the site and also the site itself so that you can see this monument.  Some of the site shows the faces in 3D animation as well.
