    What really happened at the First Thanksgiving? Become a history detective and find out! In this fun, award-winning activity, kids take on the role of "history detectives" to investigate what really happened at the famous 1621 celebration. (Hint: It was a lot more than just a feast!)

    By playing Sheppard Software's geography games, you will gain a mental map of the world's continents, countries, capitals, & landscapes! You can learn and practice by continent or by state. There are three levels.

    This is an amazing website. There are engaging and interactive lessons and games for students of differing abilities. This would be a great site for my classroom of students with special needs who need some exposure to world geography but in a simplified and engaging manner.

    Not only can this site be used as a whole class lesson but children can access independently with different skill levels.

    The games help the student learn in multiple ways visually and auditorially. There are prompts to help the student along. I like it!

    So hands on! Check out grade 6, solar system to the moon! Very motivating and easy to use

    Science by grade level. The only thing that is a negative is most of the video is supported by flash and not many by shockwave so it would be difficult to view on Macs.

    This is a great site, and very age appropriate for older students too. I was impressed with the thorough content under the 7th grade mathematics section, and the games that are included.

    This site offers a huge selection of games and interactive activities. The activities are searchable by grade level and topics. This site is a good supplemental activity. The graphics may be overwhelming for some students. There are no accessibility options.

    Discovered this through Henry Winkler on Twitter - It is an amazing interactive "newspaper" for students in the UK. But there is a lot here we can use in the states.

    Oooh..this is such fun! It's a Beta version tool for creating interactive charts, maps, plots, diagrams, etc. Great visuals in 2D or 3D with thanks (by publisher) to the Google Chart Tools team. Your creation can be posted/shared, printed, emailed, etc.

    Looks like a good way to show the students how to make charts, too.
