U.S.A. Activity for 5th Grade

Part 1

Internet Bookmarks or Favorites


Bookmarks or Favorites are a way of keeping an Internet address without having to remember or write it down.

 

That might be helpful, huh? After all, who wants to try to remember something like:

http://www.californiainternet.net/me/gotofile/blahblahblah/somethingor other/~into/index.html

 

During your work on the Internet you will want to keep track of certain web sites.
