better serve their children with curriculum-based internet resources.

their specific curricular areas. These are sites with many activities and or
resources for students, parents, and teachers. I will be adding more sites

content that could yield questionable results.

Please Take Note-
*I believe that students need adult supervision when exploring the
Internet. The sites found on Mr. Berger's pages were selected for inclusion
for students while under teacher supervision.
If you choose to allow your child to visit any of these sites from home, you
need to assume the responsibility of supervision.
