Summary: National Geographic Explorer is a classroom magazine for grades two through six.

The site also offers extensions to the magazines, allowing students to dig deeper and explore learning in a fun, safe, online environment.
Commentary: National Geographic is a reputable source, so teachers know the information is factual and accurate. The site is updated monthly, with dates and publishing information readily available. The site is organized, easy to navigate and aesthetically pleasing and engaging. There are very limited advertisements (at most one per page) and ads are clearly differentiated from instructional content.
