I know it may seems like a wild card, but believe Wikipedia has a place in the education world. I think it is a great jumping off point for finding topics and small snip bits of information. Would I tell my students to completely rely on what Wikipedia says? No, but its a good starting place.
The National Archives website is information just waiting for you to look for it. It's a quick and easily manouvered website to help you find any kind of historical informaiton you may need. I'mportant to any scholar or educator.
Not only is this website important to current librarians, but it is also a great resource for future librarians. Anything and everything you might want to know about how a library works to where there are job openings.

Brain Pop is an amazing website, I enjoy going through each of the different sections checking out the infromation given. I think K-8 would get the most good out of the information and layout given.
