L'encyclopédie des 8-13 ans que chacun peut améliorer !

La guerre de Succession d'Autriche est une guerre européenne qui s'est déroulée de 1740 à 1748.

Le conflit éclate suite au rejet par certains États de la Pragmatique Sanction, qui léguait à la fille de Charles VI du Saint-Empire, Marie-Thérèse, les États héréditaires des Habsbourgs.

La guerre se déroule en Silésie où la Prusse signe un traité de paix en 1742. En Bohême, la Bavière et la France prennent Prague, puis reculent en 1742 ; en 1743, ils subissent des revers pendant leurs retraites. Entre 1744 et 1748, la France concentre alors ses efforts vers les Pays-Bas autrichiens où elle est victrorieuse.

La Guerre se termine en 1748 avec la signature du Traité d'Aix-la-Chapelle en 1748.

Our Wikipedia for Kids search resource is located on the top of our new website for easy access along with our additional safe search tools.

Wiki for Kids is a filtered Wikipedia resource that provides articles in Simple English. It is similar to Wikipedia's Simple Edition with the added benefit that our site filters out content that is not appropriate for children and teens.

The internet is a very valuable and powerful tool, putting a world of information at our fingertips. The web has definitely changed the world, including the way kids do their research for school, homeschooling, or general curiosity.

We have partnered with the KidzSearch Wiki to safely meet these needs.

Students at home and in school need access to tools that are designed to provide results that are:

Safe - because potentially inappropriate images and text should be filtered out. It's a no brainer.

Readable - because it's good to widen your vocabulary, but new information should also be easy to understand instead of overwhelming for young children.

Accurate - because if there's ever a place that attracts misinformation, it would definitely be called the internet.

Those are three of the many reasons why parents and teachers have to do their own research before putting a child in front of the keyboard for some fun, modern learning. About Wikipedia (Simple English Edition):
Wikipedia is a free open content online encyclopedia where people from anywhere in the world can contribute information on any topic in different languages. Wiki articles can be edited to make corrections as well. The Simple Edition of Wikipedia uses words and grammar that is ideal for children, and also provides a shorter more concise version of the original article.

Wikipedia is not considered a 100% credible source of authority information for academic research, because it has been created as an easily accessible index and/or textual condensation of primary and secondary sources for information about anything and everything.

Since Wikipedia can be updated by any person, at any time, parents and teachers should instruct children to confirm information through reliable sources.

Examples of reliable sources include published works, almanacs, guide books, survey articles, timelines, and user guides. A scholar may also use a bibliography, dictionary, or encyclopedia as either a textual condensation or a secondary source.

With that being said, Wiki for Kids can be a good starting point for 'easy to access' child-oriented research. While it's important that kids use a second source with more authority and credibility on the topic, Simple Wikipedia Edition is also great for young minds because:

The information you are researching will be there in one easy to navigate online encyclopedia.

It will definitely help you understand where you can look for more information on that topic.

Since the language (words and grammar) used is much simpler and easier to understand, Wiki for Kids is ideal for young children who are already learning something new and challenging.

So now that we've established the free benefits and expected limitations of Wikipedia, here is some information to help kids explore a topic.
Online Research Tips for Kids:

Anytime you write or publish information that you found online, you must include a citation for the original resource. Give credit where credit is due!

Cross check facts using multiple sources, and choose the most reliable source for your citation.

Avoid downloading any programs or images that you find online until you check with an adult first.

Learn about online safety to keep from clicking links to inappropriate sites.

Advertisements on the internet are deceiving by design. You have not won anything!

Never give out your personal information on the internet.

When creating usernames, do not include like your name or birth date. This counts for giving out personal information.

When in doubt, ask for help!

Embrace safe learning!

About the Exquisite Corpse Adventure

Ever heard of an Exquisite Corpse? It's not what you might think. An Exquisite Corpse is an old game in which people write a phrase on a sheet of paper, fold it over to conceal part of it and pass it on to the next player to do the same. The game ends when someone finishes the story, which is then read aloud.

Our "Exquisite Corpse Adventure" works this way: Jon Scieszka, the National Ambassador for Young People's Literature, has written the first episode, which is "pieced together out of so many parts that it is not possible to describe them all here, so go ahead and just start reading!" He has passed it on to a cast of celebrated writers and illustrators, who must eventually bring the story to an end.

Every two weeks, there will be a new episode and a new illustration. The story will conclude a year from now.To get bi-weekly updates with new Exquisite Corpse Adventure chapters, click on the subscribe link at the top of the page. "This story starts with a train rushing through the night...." No one knows where or how it will end!

Featured Books

"I work in [a school] for the Deaf and Blind so our population requires accessibility that the general population does not.

The accessibility options included with each book on your website far exceeds my expectations for meeting the needs of our students.

Both Tumblebooks and TeenBookCloud are welcome additions to our library."
Debora Lillard
Arizona Schools for the Deaf and Blind

"We are using and loving Tumblebooks and TeenBookCloud more than ever. We are 1:1 in grades 6-12, and have many, many devices at the elementary level. Students are using it for their free reading, class novels and we really love the audiobooks, especially for our students who need some assistive help with reading.

Products continue to work well with all our devices and our network, keep up the great work and adding more content."

Connie Deutsch
Fargo Public Schools

"I love TeenBookCloud. It is such an amazing site that offers unlimited access to several classic readings like "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" and "Romeo & Juliet." The enhanced eBooks are one of the best features. To have the text highlighted as read is a necessity for our struggling readers. We are 1:1 with Chromebooks and TeenBookCloud works great on them. It is a great value for the price."
Emily Dittmar
Muskego High School

"We LOVE TeenBookCloud at our school for use during the Listen to Reading component of Daily 5. The wide variety of books gives students the opportunity to select engaging good-fit books."
Jade VanDamme
Imperial School

"One of my favorite things is that you have included some of the classics like Pride and Prejudice, Romeo and Juliet, The Scarlet Letter and many others! With TumbleBooks we no longer have to purchase class sets of novels which get worn and then tossed!! Great way to get kids interested in reading again!!"
