Note:
For the most part, the sites above are non-profit or educator sites which do not have all the banner ads, those annoying pop-up ads and the other distractions (games, jokes, etc.) that can get in the way of students using the web in a productive manner. Many of the sites below are .com sites and offer those distractions along with appropriate content.
