Product Details
- Overview
-
National Geographic Kids is a public children’s media website rather than a district curriculum product. It is intended primarily for children in elementary and middle grades exploring animals, science, geography, cultures, and current topics, with students, teachers, librarians, and families using it to support background knowledge, informational reading, curiosity, visual literacy, and research.
Learners read articles, view images and videos, play topic games, and explore high-interest nonfiction independently or as part of teacher-designed lessons. Districts should evaluate how the product fits adopted curriculum, student needs, instructional time, and the work educators must do around it.
