Target: Educational Web Sites Elem. Kids LIKE!

[Brenda Strack <brstrack@JUNO.COM>]

Hi!  By this time of the year, my elementary kids are tired of the programs we have 
in the computer lab.  They are always begging me to go onto the internet.  
Unfortunately, what they want to do is go to places like Cartoon Network, etc. and 
play arcade-style games.  I always say that our school lab is not an arcade and we 
use the computers as tools, and the internet as a research tool. Blah, blah, blah.

I was wondering if any of you know of web sites that are educational AND the kids 
LIKE them?  I would like to create an "ok" list of bookmarks that I can let 
students go to after they complete their assignments.  Places like Funbrain, 
BrainPop, etc.

Thanks from me and my students!
