Authoritative Internet Resources and Databases
Edmonds Elementary is a great place to do research. Here are some of our favorite starting points. Some of these are subscription based services. Ask librarian for a password bookmark.

Search Engine Suggestions- Use AFTER above
Students remember to use the links above FIRST.
If all the Internet were in one place, finding information would be much easier. But it isn't, so many students end up searching, and searching, and searching- instead of finding. Picking the right search engine comes AFTER you know what you are looking for. What do you want to know? Why didn't you want to try one of the higher quality paid databases above? Search Engine Showdown and Infopeople have some advice about this. Then try one of these as a second choice.
Curriculum and Classroom Links
If your Teacher showed you a link, it's probably here.
