These are my top ten websites that I personally used throughout grades k-12. This could help students with learning the different aspects of schooling such as reading, writing, spelling, even math. These are great resources that all students could access in and out of the school settings, providing an opportunity for the students and their parents to enhance the lesson plans we may be going over in school, or it could be an opportunity that helps the students and their parents developed more information within learning more.
