I received an email last week from a reader named Allison who teaches in a school that doesn’t allow her to upgrade the browser on the computers in her computer lab. And the computers themselves are running Windows 2000. This teacher was hoping that I could provide a list of engaging elementary school websites that will run well on Windows 2000 machines that are using IE6.

Since I don’t have access to a computer that uses Windows 2000, I’m hoping that those of you who are or have recently been in the same position as my emailer can offer some advice in the comments. What resources would recommend to an elementary school teacher who has to use Windows 2000 and IE6 with her students? Please leave a comment and help out a fellow elementary school teacher.
