I was able to find this Google Site and it's a site created by another educator for his class. The style and aesthetic of the website is obviously meant to target the late-elementary to junior high students. He has some wonderful links and overall information on his website. The link that I found to be the most fascinating was the "Climate Type for Kids" link. It takes you to another site where students are able to see the many different types of weather and climate around the world. The website also gives great examples of which parts of the world possess these different types of climates. This would be a wonderful tool for students who are studying geography or topography. My only feedback that I would give these site authors would be to include a map of the world where the students could click directly on a country or region and the website would give you the information. Currently, in order to find a specific region's climate, I had to guess what kind of climate is present in that environment and read through the page to confirm that climate belongs to that country. It was a bit time consuming to find the climates associated with the eastern Asian countries.
