Recommendation:

The site appears to have been last updated in 2004. There don´t seem to be any dead pages, however getting a quick response from for any story contribution or kids club feature would be worth checking on before students submit anything. The audio is clear and the readings are energetic. There is shopping on the site, but it is not intrusive.

Description:

In addition, there are writing activities, games, a decoder, coloring pages and wildlife facts. A Kid´s Club invites kids to read, write, enter competitions and be creative.

Possible uses:

There are many features for students to use on this site. Students can listen to a story, read or write a story or participate in a number of other online activities.

The Fill in a Story page is like a Mad-Libs form that uses grammar terms.
