On this page are links to various educational sites that I use regularly in my teaching programs. In most cases I have found that it is educational sound to direct children to specific sites and restrict their access on the Internet. This serves two puposes: You know where they are and what they are looking at and, it means they are not wasting time looking for resources in a plethora of rubbish or accessing inappropraite and uncertain websites.
