I missed the original post here, but I'm guessing from the references to 
"daughter" and "Albuquerque" that Chad sent it :)

Anyway... what exactly do you have in mind when you say "educational 
sites"?  For there are literally tens of thousands of sites oriented to "K-12" 
education in one way or another: as a father of two and step-father of 
another four, and with my present and ex-wives both being teachers, I 
spend a lot of time looking for lesson plans and similar materials on the 
Web, believe me. <g>

The most comprehensive K-12 resource I know of is ERIC (the Educational 
Resources Information Center), which has spitloads of lesson-plans, 
journal articles, links and so on, of interest to teachers and parents:

I find their "Virtual Library" in particular to be a good jumping-off point:
