Lots of white space and colorful, quick loading graphics make this site appealing. |

REVIEW:
This is a great site for students or teachers looking for information on a thematic topic. It would be a great starting point because for each topic, and there are over 200 now, there are at least four sites listed plus definitions, activities and many more resources. The material is appropriate for grades K-12 and covers thematic topics that are generally included in the classroom curriculum. A mix of subject areas are covered including fine arts, social studies, science, math, language arts, and other content areas. This project has grown over the past five years and is updated and revised frequently.
