You are invited to view other educational web sites that I have created to assist students, parents, and teachers. You can find links to several of these pages at:
Please be patient while the photos and sound files load. You will then be able to see and hear sentences.
Children get an early interest in books, pictures, and learning when others read to them and with them.
Asking questions about pictures and words, turning pages, and guessing what will happen next, all add to the excitement of learning.

***** The quality of free educational programs available on the Internet has been rapidly expanding. This page includes connections to just a few of the sites that I have previewed and chosen for particular skill building purposes.
I greatly appreciate the contributions that others are making to the Internet and intend to add more free programs and connections to assist others. Please consider visiting the home pages and viewing other programs from the makers of the programs to which I have chosen to make connections.
I am interested in exploring new opportunities for the use of technology to promote education.
***** A special note of thanks is extended to the Homestead Web Page Creation Program that enabled me to create this web page. You may contact me to learn more about how to easily create and share web pages.
