Klondike - Rush for Gold In the summer of 1897 two ocean going steamers landed on the west coast of the United States. One ship, The Excelsior, landed in San Francisco and three days later The Portland landed in Seattle. Down the gangplank of these two ships went a rag-tag group of men and women carrying sacks of gold. Some walked down the docks with $5,000 worth of gold while others had over $100,000 worth. The miners told of the rich claims they had staked one year earlier on a series of small creeks flowing into the Klondike River. The Dawson City Museum presents a glimpse of the journey to the harsh north country of Alaska and Yukon.

Bubble & Pebble Main Page Six years old children animated the characters, created digital games and recorded their voices in English for the other children all over the world. With the developing and emerging technologies at the last decades of the 20th century, our children have become more collaborative, interactive, online and digital than ever. As our children are the digital natives in the 21st century, the easiest way to reach them is to use technology and digital games. There is no doubt that audio and visual materials facilitate learning (and specifically English language learning), but while there are many digital games that may be fun to play, unfortunately they often don't include educational goals and outcomes.
