PARENTS AND STUDENTS!
Please don't forget: Whenever accessing anything outside of my site, parental supervision is crucial. I am not responsible for YouTube's, etc's recommendations on personal devices. All channels and videos I suggest are kid-friendly, but it's important to keep an eye on what is suggested beyond them. Thanks for helping me keep our kiddos safe and happy!
IF YOU ARE USING A CHROMEBOOK some resources won't work for you because of Flash Player. Try a different device.
