MyPyramid.gov - United States Department of Agriculture - For Kids - 0 views

  •  
    I was first attracted to this site because of the interactive game regarding healthy food choices. But there is so much more here such as a menu planner, a food pyramid tracker, podcasts for making healthy changes in diet, coloring sheets, worksheets, and other printed materials. I think any health teacher would love this site.

    This site gives information about Federal Emergency Management Agency.

Ben's Guide: U.S. Government Web Sites for Kids (Agency) - 1 views

  •  
    This site has almost anything one would want having to do with the United States government. It is one of the most extensive sites relating to the U.S. government. It has information for students as low as kindergarten and as high as seniors. It seems rare to find a site that truely covers this range of ages as well as this one does. For the elementary teacher and the high school history teacher this will be a helpful site to use.

    This is another portal with a ton of great links. There is a page full of links for educators and then drop down menus that separate K-6 and 7-12. In these drop-down menus are links to entire pages of websites devoted to topics like the government, history, the military, math, and science. Not all of these sites have government documents, but many of them do.
