About Me
- S Farsakh
- I have a BFA in dance from the University of Arizona. Throughout my dance career I have taught in urban public schools as well as international schools. I owned and operated a dance school for 15 years. I am currently pursuing a career in education. I am working on a Masters in elementary education at St. John’s University in New York, NY. Presently, I work part time at Kidville, a learning and play center for children, in Hoboken, NJ. I teach preschool alternative classes and ballet there. Additionally, I am a freelance Choreographer and Master Dance instructor and often volunteer my time to teach dance to children who might not be able to afford classes.

Description:
National Geographic is an informational magazine that focuses on culture, geography and science. They have videos and an educational link for children. You can find games, and fact sheets about ancient civilizations, endangered species, and much more. It is a wonderful educational tool for students.
Reasons:
I chose National Geographic because I find the information on the site fascinating. The site has a variety of topics: ancient civilization, global warming, and endangered species are but a few. The way the site exhibits photos and information is interesting to all. Additionally, the information on this site is appropriate to have on a web quest for students to learn from.
