Web sites for a Dynamic Curriculum v.39
The Internet can be used to enhance, extend and support both learning and teaching across the curriculum. Many excellent sites are now available suitable for use in Foundation Stage onwards. There are resources and ideas for the teacher; others are suitable for children to use. It is imperative though that the relevant sites are checked by the teacher not only to protect children from undesirable materials but also to decide if the content is relevant for pupils and cut down on wasted time with fruitless and frustrating searching. The Internet used wisely can be stimulating and exciting adding another dimension to teaching and learning.
