Electricity Online
"Materials may be classified into one of three categories depending on their electrical conductivity (their ability to conduct a current). Conductors conduct electric charge better than semi-conductors, which in turn conduct better than insulators. This extensive site was created for the ThinkQuest Internet competition by teens from three different countries: India, Netherlands and United States. It is divided into Lessons (several dozen on topics such as circuitry and electrostatics), Applications (including Solar Power and Telecommunications), History and Activities."

Dole Five A Day
""5 A Day is the magic rule -- more is OK, less is uncool!" Thissite is a celebration of the important health benefits of eating fruits andvegetables. The graphics are so bright and compelling, it’s impossible not tobegin craving a fruit or veggie snack. For kid’s activities, go to "FunStuff". The clickable Fruit and Vegetable characters are clearly for theyounger set, but I still learned some new things. Did you know that kiwi is nota tropical fruit and its skin is edible? I enjoyed the guide to apple varieties"All About Apples". You’ll find its link on the Anthony Apple page. For young chefs, I recommend the "Kid’s Cookbook". Nitty grittynutritional details for older kids (and parents) can be found in the "NutritionalCenter"."

Discovery Channel: Roller Coasters
"Join journalist Vince Rause, a recovering "rollerphobe," as he tackles his fear by returning to the site of his "childhood humiliation" to ride every coaster there. In addition to Vince’s well-written and engaging dispatches, two not-to-be-missed clicks are the Build Your Own Coaster (requires a Java-enabled browser) and the Video Rides (RealVideo or QuickTime). Rounding out this outstanding site is Coaster Talk where you can share your roller coaster experiences with other roller coaster groupies. If you have time for only one site on today’s tour, make it this one."

Dale Hill Family Homepage
Reviewed July 23, 1999 by Dale Hill, a teacher from Near Anadarko, Oklahoma - North American Plains Indian Capital of the World. who is affiliated with the site. Actual pictures of a house burning to the grown will catch the students’ attention. Plenty of pictures that the students have to click on. The language in places are a bit much for 1st graders, but the teacher can read it to them. This is a personal experience and, YES, you will see a mug shot of me.Dale
