REVIEW:
Three University students interested in elementary education developed this Web site. Each one worked on a different section of the site, which resulted in a variety of layouts within the site. The site is meant to be a resource for elementary educators to use to create interactive health units that will spark student interest. The main sections of the site cover nutrition, exercise, dental health, the five senses, the parts of the body, and healthy habits. These units could be used together as a health unit, or individually to supplement a particular curriculum theme.
