Passport Explorer: Homework & Websites

Students will start having Passport Explorer homework once a week. They are to choose a country from the month's Passport Club to research. The following are good websites to research various countries. Students are not limited to the following sites, they are simply suggestions. Please talk to your child as you see fit about safely searching the internet.

National Geographic Kids
Fact Monster 
Ducksters (click on the corresponding continent/region then scroll down to find a list of countries)
Kids Science- Countries 
Our Africa (only African countries)
Easy Science for Kids (fairly good selection, poorly organized. Best to use the side bar "Find by Topic" and select the appropriate continent)
Kids World Travel Guide (somewhat limited selection of countries)
