Review what we did today in the class, help each student finish their assignment if they are not already done.

I will check for understanding on how to use the internet as well as if the students completed the student worksheet.

I chose this site because it lets the children be independent as well as confident in what they are learning. They can go to this site without the help of a teacher and chose this activity and complete it successfully.
