Most people appreciate the artistry of a well-designed website. Millville School, our online school of the month, is just such a website. You'll immediately notice the quality of presentation. Looking a little more closely, you'll also notice the quality of educational resources. Students and teachers at Millville are publishing work online regularly, sharing their creativity with the online educational community.

Mr. Carles' Class Page is a great place to begin your visit. These 5th grade students have published their writing, including Moon Poems inspired by an evening spent watching a lunar eclipse. Their research on Colonial America reveals a wealth of useful information for students of all ages. For example, Jessica's research on New Amsterdam offers a simple history of the origin of New York.

Faculty members at Millville have also published work online, surely helping to model classroom practice for their students. Ms. Merrill offers Whole Language or Whole Child, a resource for other educators dealing with the whole language approach to learning. Mr. Carles offers Gifted and Talented resources, providing a valuable collection for other online educators. His collection is extensive and a "must bookmark" for anyone working with talented students. Mr. Carles also offers a collection of resources for anyone interested in Holistic Education.

The Millville School is located in Millville, Utah, in a valley of the Wasatch Mountain Range. The pictures of "where they live" are gorgeous. Clearly, the beauty of their surroundings inspires the artistry of their website.
