Credible websites.
There is so much content knowledge that students should be taught within their school year. A teacher is not capable of remembering all the facts accurately, that is why it is useful to send students to find the information out for themselves or find it as a whole class on the Internet. It is helpful to find certain websites for students to browse instead of saying "Google it!" because you never know what they might find.
A website that I found useful for my context at the moment (Prep unit: Space) was the NASA website.
The only negative that I can see with the NASA website is that the majority of information is written and not spoken, so I prep child would defiantly find it hard to navigate through various pages, as many do not have the ability to read. Upper primary have a FANTASTIC resource as NASA for kids has encyclopedias on various topics (relating to space) a dictionary and short movies about different space technologies.
