National Geographic Kids is great site for kids to use in the classroom! This website was very helpful and full of wonderful information and photos.I even learned some information about interesting animals and countries. It would be wonderful to help younger children with projects and class activities. There are games, photos, polls and news. I would suggest this website for Elementary aged children since the vocabulary is fairly simple and limited. The material is just right for this age level. The site is very well organized, easily accessible and covers many different topics that may be of interest to children. The information that is provided on this site about animals, countries, places, etc. is perfect for a short report on a given topic. I learned that even credible sources do not always meet every checklist criteria for being a trustworthy source.The author information and publisher information is not given, but other than that, the site is a credible source. National Geographic has been a major source of educational information for decades.
