I am teaching a unit on evaluating web sites to 8th graders. I would
like an example of an informational site where the author is a child,
preferably a mid-school or elementary student.  The information
presented doesn't have to be incorrect, but the author must be
identified as a student from such and such school.  I am trying to make
the point that anybody can publish on the web, and you shouldn't blindly
except the information as true without checking your sources.  I have
been trying for a couple hours to find a good example. I have looked at
many sites about how to evaluate web sites (like Kathy Schrock's) but
have yet to find an example with a young student as author. Can anybody
help?  Please send the URL for the site if you have one.
Thanks!
