Exploring Information Literacy: Evaluating Websites for Students

In this lesson, students will learn to identify and explore various features of informational websites. They will understand that website ratings can differ among users and will evaluate the aspects they like or dislike about each site. Key vocabulary includes "subject," "link," and "rate." Through interactive activities, such as assessing popular children's websites, students will ask questions about the site's subject, aesthetics, usability, and overall appeal. This will help them determine what makes a website valuable for their age and interests.
