Exploration #4e1: Reading /Language Arts Resources

In this first exploration, you will explore exemplary resource sites developed to support Reading and Language Arts instruction in the elementary classroom. You will also visit several Children's Literature resource sites. Dozens of similar sites can be found by exploring the links on the clearinghouse sites in the More Reading/Language Arts Sites section.

Hint: If you haven't already done so, I'd suggest that you create a Reading folder in your Bookmarks/Favorites into which you can save useful sites that you find in this exploration.
