HIT: software and HTML (short)

[Tina Hudak <tinahudak@COMCAST.NET>]

Dear Folks,

This is what came in:

Our computer teacher, grades Pre K - 4 recommends the following:
"Math blaster, math zoo, mavis typing, story book weaver are the best"
Story sticker is good too.

We use Numbers Undercover for grades 1-3.  It is put out by Sunburst and
focuses on time, money, skip counting, and estimating.  For typing, we use
Type to Learn, also by Sunburst.  Hope this helps!

Have you tried Arachnophilia?  It is a free downloadable HTML editor and I
use it for my web page. You will need a basic understanding of HTML, but
once you have that (available on many how-to websites) it is easy to
use.  I have not used Front Page, but I understand there is a high learning
curve and it adds a lot of extra code that makes the pages slow to load.
You can design pages in Word as well, but again it adds a great deal of
extra code that slows the load of the page. Arachnophilia is "lean and
mean" and I love it.

davesite is a good one but there are others, too.

Some kid friendly sites are:

<http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/kids/>http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/kids/

  Arachnophilia is very easy to use, and the price is definitely right.
