NOTE TO PARENTS: I have provided the following websites for your child to practice research and other fourth grade skills on the web. Please take note that because of the nature of the Internet, it is still possible to access a series of links that may take one to almost anywhere. In otherwords, in spite of efforts to supply appropriate material and links on this page, parents should constantly supervise children while they surf the Web.
