These suggestions for internet websites should be used to further enrich your student's studies, not as a substitute for the lessons provided in Beyond Five in a Row. It goes without saying that use of the internet requires wisdom and supervision of your student's access to the wide variety of sometimes unwholesome material available in cyberspace. On the other hand, there are wonderful resources available from businesses, agencies and universities that can provide a rich resource for learning. Use wisdom and learn about the internet yourself rather than just turning your student loose with a modem and web browser!

The links listed below have been found to be excellent and helpful resources for enriching Beyond Five in a Row lessons. However, due to the ever changing nature of the world wide web and the internet we can not guarantee every link will be current. If you find a web page that you think may benefit other Beyond Five in a Row users or a link that is no longer active, please report it to connections@fiveinarow.com.

We can not endorse any links provided on the pages we have linked. We have tried to use pages from only reputable sources, but we can not guarantee the quality of any link you may follow beyond the page we have sugested.

This site is as fun for teachers as it is for students. Maintained by Parker Pens in the U.K., this site gives the history of writing implements, how pens were invented and how different kinds of pens work. Interesting and educational!

This site, sponsored by the Internet Public Library, offers your student a brief, but informative look at the presidency of Calvin Coolidge. This would be a nice supplement to your lesson on the 1920's.
