1b World Book Online Info Finder

This site is very informational. The article on rabbits has 173 items, 3 videos, and 11 pictures. Some of the articles include dogs who hunt rabbits and books about rabbits. The vocabulary is definitely geared to adults instead of young children. The amount of information is at least three times as much as the information in the Kids Edition of World Book. I think this link would be frustrating for younger children so it is great to have the different levels of information I was just thinking of how having another level of World Book online has improved research for younger children.
My goal is to take this information to the classroom teachers and ask them to look at these different online references.

  1. Best wishes on your efforts to share World Book with your teachers! Let us know how that goes, will you? Teachers usually love it once they see what's there.
