Karen Burns, Hill Middle School Denver, Colorado Hi, Try some of the links at our Animals page: http://www.ecb.org/surf/animals.htm I would think 1st graders would enjoy Critter of the month, Classifying Critters (with teacher help), Animal WebCams from the National Zoo, Animal ABC's, Creature Feature videos from National Geographic, and Kratt's Creatures. Peggy (and there's always Enchanted Learning, but it's mostly just printouts and worksheets that you could get from a print source, not photographs and video) Try http://www.enchantedlearning.com and http://www.arnosky.com (author/illustrator Jim Arnosky's website) Jill Kaale, Librarian New Salem Elementary School (K-4) 3745 Salem Road York, PA 17404 717-225-4731 x3737 Hi Try my animals http://www.mikids.com/mammals.htm Cheers, Carolyn Hi, I found a few great sites for young students!
