Hello LM Netters
Thanks to all that sent responses quite a while
ago. Our district put on the annunal BCTLA conference
last mid-October and time was at a premium. Finally I
have the time and energy to compile a HIT!
The question was:
I am looking to incorporate children friendly
websites to my Alexander catalogue program. These are
ones that a child
can go to at the search station and learn more about
the author (gr 1 - 6 level) or perhaps do some neat
activities related
to the books
Here are the wonderful responses....thanks again to
you all, and to those who gave permission to link with
their webistes
++++++++++++
......the author page at the Read In website
< http://www.readin.org > There you will find a
number of links to author
pages. I find a lot of students like the Avi page.
Also the Children's Literature website
<http://www.acs.ucalgary.ca/~dkbrown/index.html>...............
+++++++++++
.........Try patricapolacco.com........

Roald Dahl's. There are all kinds of activities that
children can do. You must have Flash installed for it
to work though.
www.roalddahl.com
++++++++++++
........Try this website for younger students:
http://www.ci.shrewsbury.ma.us/Sps/Schools/Beal/Curriculum/media/medialinks.html
++++++++++
..........take a look at my site at www.tonibuzzeo.com
+++++++++
........ Look at Dav Pilkey, (pilkey.com) Roald Dahl,
Edward Lear. Scholastic (www.scholastic.com) has Dear
America, Clifford and more. Look at the American
Girls site......
+++++++++
........On my website http://www.rgsd.org/gibsonlib/
go to reading, then authors. I have a bunch listed
plus sites with
more......
+++++++++
.........Tedd Arnold has a wonderful site. He is the
one that designed it and keeps it up.
www.teddarnold.com ..............
++++++++
.........www.willhobbsauthor.com is a good
one!.........
+++++++
................Check out my K2 link.
< http://www.mikids.com>
Rolie Polie Olie and Spot are terrific sites!...
++++++++++
.........All of the sites that I have linked from my
authorlinks page at
http://www.mcelmeel.com/curriculum/authorlinks.html
fit the criteria you list. All of the links are
created by or for the specific author - -not
publishers sites, or third party sites per se. In
some cases such as Beverly Cleary or dead authors the
sites may be by a fan but they are the definitive site
for that person. I've checked all external links
from their pages,
as they were at the time that I listed them.
Do keep in mind that no one can guarantee the
continuing quality of inked sites unless no links are
ever made...........
