Currently, we are learning about Ancient Greek culture, and as part of Nick’s assignments he must create a “show what you know page” in his history notebook. I decided to create the worksheet below so he may include it in his notebook and use it for review. Hopefully, you will find it useful too

It’s funny how life works. I was completely unaware of Ohio Treasure Chest until I came across the Rippling Ponds Blog which is written by Kathy Shields in Alpharetta Georgia. Ohio Treasure Chest provides lists of websites catagorized by grade and subject matter. It then breaks down resources by the following:
Web Resources - Educational web sites that support that indicator - This is the main focus of the Treasure Chest
Lesson Plans - Lessons that help teach that indicator (Note: This section is new and still developing)
Connections - Other indicators in any content area that relate to that indicator - Or click to get full list for this subject and grade
Comments - General comments or ideas related to that indicator (Note: This section is new and still developing)
Assessments - Assessment questions related to that indicator (Note: This section is new and still developing)
The site was created by the Canton School system, and I applaud their efforts. It is great seeing a public school system embracing technology and providing an open resource to guide students in Canton and beyond. Check it out!

Just wanted to put a quick post in. If anyone is interested, there is a site called www.claus.com . It claims to be “the merriest place in cyberspace”. The site offers a naughty or nice list, and at this time of year such a thing can come in handy when you have unruly children- such as mine;)

I have been looking for kid orientated history sites, and in this post I will be listing a few. I am very interested in world history but currently I have been focusing my efforts on American History. Expect to see more history sites in the future.
Way Back- Technology in the 1900’s
If you know of any additional sites which deserve to join the list please feel free to leave them in the comments.
