What do all kids like to do? Play games? Use a computer? Learn new things? So, why not do all three at once? In the Integration corner under chapter seven I found a great website to satisfy all three things that children like to do most, now-a-days. This website is called PrimaryGames.com. This website is colorful and user friendly. Also, I really liked how the website is themed. For example, right now it has turkeys on it, representing Thanksgiving.
On the top of the page there are boxes with all kinds of subjects to choose from. Each subject has different kinds of games to choose from to play. Each game, however, is geared toward that particular subject. So, these children are learning by playing games on the computer. It’s like having your cake, eating it, and taking home a piece too! The website is so easy to use the children are capable of doing it themselves. However, it is the internet so all precautions for children being on the world wide web still have to be put into consideration. No matter how great or user friendly a webpage is, children should never be left alone while on the internet.
This website is great for students to learn knew things while using their skills on the computer. I have included the website here for anyone who would like to see this cool stuff on their own.
Love the website. I have a 10 year old who will love this. My kids are not allowed to play video games during the week, only on the weekends. I think it's great......trick them into thinking that they are playing games, but really they are learning...that's awesome. Parents are so evil.LOL
ReplyDeleteGreat site. I loved Angela's "parents are so evil" and the fact they let their kids learn without really knowing it. This site covers all the subjects and the kids learn while playing some really cool games. It has something for all ages too. I also like the reminder to watch your child on the internet. I think every little reminder helps because parents forget that the kids can get in trouble online too.
