This list of website links has been approved by me, Jody DeJong, your Canajoharie Elementary Media Specialist. Some are simply for fun, others are for help with homework and other educational pursuits.

Parents

PLEASE do not allow your children unsupervised access to these sites. While they are pre-approved and have no harmful or objectionable material contained in them, internet pop-up adds do contain links to many websites you would not approve of. Many of my approved sites also contain links to other sites that may then contain links to something you may find objectionable. Thank You.
