Websites

There are also many online resources, particularly websites, that are helpful in working with children.  I have referenced some of the websites below for ideas and lessons to use with the diverse population of students with whom I work, whether on a weekly basis, on a monthly basis, or a few times per year or whether I work with them individually, in small groups, or as a whole-class.  I have listed a number of websites below by content areas for your perusal.  Feel free to look through the list of websites and click on ones that are of interest to you.
