Here is a link to an interactive online periodic table of elements. You can click on the individual elements to learn more about them. Very cool!

Here is a great website that offers a FREE typing/keyboarding class online. It's fun too. My son did this a couple years ago and it really helped him learn to type. It is a beginning program that is great for young kids. It has 12 stages and 4 levels. You don't have to sign up or register or anything. You just go to the link and you can start learning.

This is my first day posting on this blog. Thanks for stopping by. Feel free to leave a comment.

Refer to the margin to see what I will be posting on each day. Wednesdays are website Wednesdays. I'll post websites that have been helpful with my homeschooling as well as any creative ones I use.

Today's sites all have to do with US Geography.

This one is a fun game that lets you actually put the state where it goes on a blank map. Great for geography skills!
