Web Links for Kindergarten

Dear kindergarten friends and family,

I created this biography of web links for you to visit at home and in the classroom during center time. The links are both educational and fun and are organized into three categories: Language Arts, Math, Science, Social Studies and Favorite Authors. All you have to do is click on the name of the link and you will be taken to the site. I hope you enjoy the links and have fun learning!
