Today we research several websites that relate to younger students. Most of the websites that i visited i found very useful. The first web site that i explored was nasa for kids club. This website looks very fun and very educational for children. Children will like this website because there are different skill levels and game to learn from. (http://www.nasa.gov/audience/forkids/kidsclub/flash/index.html)
The second website that i looked at was a website for Providence Elementary. It is a very good website to help keep the community informed on what is happening at the local elementary school. However, the one thing that i found that should be change is how often it is updated. It still has last years principal. (http://providencepandas.com/principalscorner.htm)
The second to last website that i explored was my most favorite. It was PE central website. This has a ton of links that are very helpful in finding different lesson ideas and information about health and PE. It is a website that people can be involved with by sending in lesson ideas. It is also a place where you can find state standards.(http://pecentral.org/)
The last website that i explored was the UEN website. It was very easy to navigate and find what i needed to find. It is a great place to find lesson ideas and find utah's state standards for elementary subjects. (http://www.uen.org/core/)
It was very helpful going to these different websites with a evaluation in hand. It helped me look for certain things that would make a website easy for parents and students to navigate. It was also good to look for the last time it was updated so i would know for sure whether or not the information is up to date. It is also good to see who the author is and if he or she is qualified to be sharing information relating to schools and students. It would be very important to use an evaluation when you are looking for info that could be used or needs to be presented. Just "websurfing" it is not as important to use a website evaluation form.
