Approved School Games
By:Ricky Durrance

These days the majority of schools in the United States have access to computers, which, if used correctly, can bring significant benefits to schoolchildren. One way to use these computers is to allow them access to approved educational websites that contain games and activities suitable for pupils of all ages and levels. To avoid any potential problems, it is best to use a select few websites that schools and teachers have approved for use.

EduGreen
Edugreen is an initiative for schools that aims to raise awareness toward environmental issues by teaching the subject in a fun and interactive manner. Various sections included on the website allow students to complete puzzles, quizzes, maps and pathfinders, which help pupils to understand nonrenewable and renewable energy benefits and downsides.

FunMaths
Arcade-style math games are available for download from this site. Math is one subject that can cause some pupils difficulty as they struggle to concentrate or follow. By using funmaths, learning can become more interactive and keep children focused by allowing them to learn math without realizing it.

Fun School
Fun School is an excellent approved game site for schools that offers tons of interactive games, coloring in pages and scannable videos, as well as preschool and parents-and-teachers sections. Fun School has rainy-day activities for those times when the weather causes teachers problems at very short notice.

Science News for Kids
Science News for Kids is a website devoted to science news for children, aged 9 to 14, and contains a number of relevant games and quizzes to aid science learning. Not only does the site contain many games for students, it also included relevant materials for parents and teachers to help create in-class science lessons for effective and fun learning.
