Two additional websites I posted to the ECE Wiki are the Community Club and the Education Place. The Community Club (http://teacher.scholastic.com/commclub/) affords children the opportunity to explore various occupations in the community. Children may click on the "speaker" icons to hear a veterinarian, librarian, firefighter, pediatrician, and other workers tell about their jobs. This website offers classrooms a wonderful resource for investigating community helpers! Additionally, the Education Place (http://www.eduplace.com/index.jsp) offers teachers several resources for reading, language arts, spelling, mathematics, science, and social studies. This website covers material that may be used from Pre-K to 6th grade, and there are various activities, lesson plans, and educational games for children.
Today I also searched for and posted a webquest. An exceptional webquest I found was called Ocean Exploration (http://questgarden.com/80/23/8/090412145526/task.htm). This science related webquest is easy to read and appropriate for the targeted grade level, 1st grade. Ocean Exploration focuses on learning about marine animals and their habitats. This webquest also has several good links to education websites to help children during their investigation.
