Parents Taking Charge in
Education Features the Website – KidInfo.com
by Mrs. Dorothy Barron
Parents, there are many
choices and quality websites and material on the Internet to assist you and
your children, but the problem for many is finding the time to surf for long
periods of time and locate the best and most feasible information. That is why when
Parents Taking Charge in Education finds such websites, materials and
information, we bring them to your attention and/or feature them at our blog. I
recently came across Ms. Linda Guterba's Website, KidInfo.com;
both the site and site owner are engaging and professional. After I requested
permission to feature her and her site, I requested information about both. She
supplied such a professional introduction, I have decided to let Ms. Guterba
tell you in her own words - who she is; what she does and the services she
provide at KidInfo.com. She also operates a sister site for teachers.
Now, from Ms. Linda Guterba –
I have been a teacher
for 37 years and have worked diligently to create KidInfo.com, a FREE educational web directory that saves parents, students,
and teachers valuable time by providing - in ONE website directory - the BEST
Preschool and K-12 quality educational websites, videos, and powerpoints. As a
teacher, I know how much time it takes to search for quality websites to
complete homework assignments, or enhance and reinforce any teacher's given
curriculum! Trying to locate appropriate and relevant information on the
worldwide web using popular search engines, and then ''sifting'' through key
word search results can be tedious, time consuming, and often bring irrelevantresults. This is the very reason I created KidInfo.com and its sister site, TeacherTidbytes.com. I have done the
searching for students, teachers, and parents, and organized the web for them!
KidInfo.com is UNIQUELY
different from other educational web directories, as it is easy to navigate,
and is the ONLY educational web directory that organizes websites according to
SPECIFIC, rather than general, curriculum studied in schools throughout the
United States, and most countries around the world. The links within
KidInfo.com and its companion site, Teacher Tidbytes, are checked weekly for
dead links, and new links are added on a continual basis.
Since its creation, KidInfo.com has become a highly recommended homework and reference resource for students, teachers, and parents. It has been listed in the USA TODAY as a "best educator pick", recommended by Woman's Day magazine as one of the 6 top educational homework help web resources, and recommended by The American Library Association, the Librarians' Internet Index, and the Internet Public Library. In addition, KidInfo.com was just recently added as a top homework and reference resource to the UK School Zone (a site reviewed by United Kingdom teachers for relevant curriculum web resources).
