Website- Bio4Kids
Bio4kids
http://www.biography.com/bio4kids/index.jsp
Bio4Kids is an awesome site! They have many resources and tools centered around influential people, which students can use for homework, projects, and questions. Their biography section has tons of Pop-cultures biographies such as; Oprah Winfrey, Lil Wayne (rapper), President Obama, Charlie Sheen, etc. They also have a large selection of historical biographies; Rosa Parks, Jackie Robinson, Albert Einstein and many more. The organization of the website is so easy to follow and there are many fun activities the tweens can do as well. There are different forms of media tools about the person; videos, pictures, news articles, and sound bytes. Bio4Kids has designed a site that attracts tweens, but still meets the information requirements for learning.
