Website Highlight
Wonderopolis
www.wonderopolis.orgQuestioning is such an important part of being a learner. Wonderopolis is a website created by the National Center for Families Learning (NCFL). Each day there is a question posed called the "Wonder of the Day." Along with the wonder will be the answer to the question and any videos or audio clips to explain the information more. You can even search by grade and subject matter. What a great way to start a week or day with a question to keep the mind active!
