Social+Studies

OLYMPICS SITES to use with your children or as resources for you...

[|TKI] Social Studies at a brief glance looks fantastic! It has unit plans organised in levels, and looks pretty! :-)

I have found a little gem!!! This site is [|Time Magazine] for children. It is american bassed but has some great articles and neat ideas for activities that link to the articles.

Celebrations web sites...

Here is [|one] in kid friendly speak on easter, christmas, birthdays in different countries with recipies and a few activities. Tones of cool links to [|various] sites from here. Better to have a look on your own to find what you like! This on in particular could be quite a nice one - it refers to [|Harmony Day.] It's that time of year again! Here is a site full of [|Xmas] links! Enjoy having a look through!

TKI [|exemplars]

Here are the pages that I mentioned with links to the Rugby World Cup. [|Peugeot rugby] Has a cool countdown clock and some videos of the rules.

[|TV3] select “Rugby World Cup”

[|Rugby World Cup] - has a lot of information about the venue and the game. But has a cool quiz that is timed, with challenging answers and changes every day

[|French Site] Quite different, but well worth a visit. Apparently not easy to find though, search on the home page for Rugby World Cup

[|ABs] Apparently lacking for the being the official site. But has player diaries and some videos worth a look. May get more than travel packages when the comp kicks off! [|Visa Rugby] sponsors site, but has a legends section with some rugby greats giving their light hearted opinion on the game ans players. Also some downloads too. Plus in the Club House some questions and answers sections.

Enjoy!
