Hi all - A student teacher came to me at the end of hte day today to collaborate 
w/her on a unit for 3rd graders on "world problems like war, poverty, homelessness, 
hunger, racism, etc."  (her words)She is very vague on the idea, just knows that 
she wants to start by introducing the book "We Dream of a World" It is a Scholastic 
Kids Are Authors Award book.  She would like me to introduce websites related to 
these topics. Computer use in the classroom is limited so she likes to take 
advantage of the library computers during the class fixed library time.  Does 
anyone have any related websites appropriate for 3rd graders? 
Of course I would also like to have books available for the kids to check out. I 
was thinking of Eve Bunting's "Fly Away HOme" for homelessness.
I will post a HIT if I receive any helpful ideas.
