Kids Past is an online textbook geared towards upper elementary and middle school students. It is very interactive and there are a lot of good pictures. Also, the site includes "historical facts" alongside narrative text. This could prove to be a powerful modification tool for students with special needs. I also liked the games provided through the site. I think students would find them very motivating. I'm wondering if this will be the first of MANY online textbooks!?!?!?!
