[Kindersite Newsletter] Kindersite newsletter the Kindersite has expanded Spring 09

New Section - Educational Games for 7 to 12 years olds

Dear friends
Since the Kindersite was launched in 2003 our children have grown up. So it is time to expand the Kindersite to follow their progress with games that are suitable for an older group of students. So I have added a new section to the kindersite with content suitable for 7 to 12 year olds. You will be able to locate the new section from the Image link at the top of the Home page, Educational Games.
I have spent many months finding appropriate content, for this new section, that fits in to the Kindersite mission to include games that have educational value and can still engage our children.
I hope the new content fits in with this mission by including play and learning elements. Some of the content is primarily play orientated, and others more learning orientated, I hope that most of the content has elements of both . 

The new content includes:
Innovative uses of technology
Sciences
Environment
Mathamatics
English (first and second language)
Art
Music
History
As usual, I rely very heavily on your feedback to understand what works, what to add, what to remove. I would also be grateful if you could send me examples of how you are using the new content within a learning environment or as leisure activities for your children.
If you have additional examples of educational games, please also let me know. As ever, please do not reply to this newsletter address but use the email address in my signature. 

Enjoy the new content.

Best wishes

Joel
