    This site is a great site for kids and teachers to go to! It is a site that focuses on the House of Representatives. Teachers and students can become more aware of its Members and their responsibilities while exploring. Some common questions that can be answered are: What is Congress? How are laws made? This site is available by age group. Each age group has a different level of understanding and new terminology to be learned.

    There are many links on this site to find out more about the U.S. Mint and coins. Students can click on "Vacation in 50 States" to play a game that would familiarize them with the different states using that state's quarter. A fun way to learn more about each state!

    As a classroom teacher, art was always a struggle for me. As I was looking through our curriculum guide, I noticed one of the national art standards asks students to "Understand and apply media, technique and processes. This site allows kids to create collages using different shapes and layering. There are size, transparency, flip and turn functions. Printing is an option. This would be fun as station activity.

    This is a primary source document . . . in Spanish! It is purported to be (as I'm no hispanohablante) a letter from 1570 that "describes the settlement at Ajacàn and requests that Juan de Hinistrosa, the Royal Treasurer of Cuba, send a ship of grain to sustain the settlement." This would be great for Spanish class, obviously, and then maybe for world history after the other students translate it. :-)

    This site is a trivia game which will also use research skills. If questions aren't answered correctly an address is given to connect with a page from the Smithsonian Institute. The answer can be found somewhere on that page. I think 5th graders would love the challenges presented and glean numerous interesting facts from the information presented.
