World+Book+Online

Post any ideas, suggestions or lesson plans for introducing and teaching World Book online here. These could also be lessons for other online encyclopedias.

This is a tentative lesson plan for Gr. 5 that I've devised: Anne Oelke, Cambria-Friesland School District, Cambria, WI.

Here is a set of 4 worksheets to practice use of World Book Online. This is designed for use with Grades 4 or 5. I created 4 different pages so that students would not all be looking for the same information. They include use of a table, map and the dictionary on each sheet.
