Summertime!

Hopefully, you aren't already hearing, "I'm bored!" However, if you are, there were a few websites/apps for students recommended by Instructor magazine that look good. Most are free, with the option of upgrades/more options for a fee:). Some are interesting, child-friendly information spots. Some are writing sites where students make their own stories. Some are just fun games to practice skills.
Here they are:
littlewritebrain.com
edupup.com
storylineonline.net
itsamadlibsworld.com
nationalgeographic.com/kids
scholastic.com/storia
nasa.gov
universalsports.com
tipitap.com

The edupup.com site is especially good; it covers all subject areas with great games.
