Our big fifth grade research project has my students finding information about
countries/nations from a variety of sources. I've taught them about some
kid-friendly search engines, but would also like a quick stash of websites on this
topic in case I need to short-cut the search (time is of the essence as we move
through the last weeks with only 35-minute periods and no lab access until March -
you understand, I'm sure) for some stragglers or nervous searchers.
To that end,
HAVE YOU COME ACROSS ANY GOOD SITES with INFORMATION ABOUT NATIONS?
please share.
Thanks.
P.S. I will, of course, post a HIT!
P.P.S. What's the difference between "country" and "nation"? We've noticed that
the World Almanac for Kids table is labeled "Nations".
