But the best part about this site are the web pages by students, the art gallery, and the class projects. Amoung the class projects are Internet scavenger hunts, online copies of several books written by students, and a Thanksgiving recipe book. The student web pages cover a wide variety of topics -- including spiders, horses, the 50 states, and women of the 20th century.
