Dillon is going to love www.arcademicskillbuilders.com and I'm looking forward to digging into www.abookintime.com too. A website we have used extensively in the past is www.brainpop.com. You can join for (I think) $9.95 a year, and they have little short videos on all sorts of topics, plus quizzes to gauge how much kids have retained. Good stuff. I was so inspired by Betheney’s list!
