PBS Kids

PBS Kids offers a wide variety of activities for students to interact with. Mostly split into two categories, games and videos

Games: Rosie's Rule is a bilingual game that teaches about various topics, such as repurposing, and growing plants

Videos: Educational videos that teach students about various subjects. An example is The Wild Kratts who teach about animals and biology.

This falls within ISTE Standards because students can browse a multitude of subjects and pick activities that interest them.
