The following list contains grades PreK-8 children's web sites. A conference presentation (PreK-3) at the Tennessee Association for the Education of Young Children (TAEYC) (Chattanooga, TN, October 14, 1998) by Deborah McAllister and Ginger Sullivan demonstrated the integration of manipulatives, software, and the web. A conference presentation at the Tennessee Education Technology Conference (TETC) (Nashville, TN, November 17, 1998) discussed software selection, with activities, curriculum connections, and web sites. Links to student-generated Microsoft lesson plans, scavenger hunts, shoebox kits, web pages, HyperStudio stacks, etc. may be found on my main web page.
