Wiggleton and Wenks

I came across a place online that I want to go and check out. It sounds like a great motivator for my high students and low students alike.
I learned about Wiglington and Wenks on a blog I like to read. Here is its address and the following is a quote from the blog. :http://ilearntechnology.com/
"What it is: Wiglington and Wenks is a rich virtual world for kids that I wrote about a few weeks ago here. This virtual world brings together literature, history, and geography into one amazing learning experience for kids. Wiglington and Wenks is a place for students to explore, think, discover, and grow. I can’t say enough about this virtual world as a learning space, I wish every textbook company on the planet would move toward this type of model of presenting content and learning!"

Aldric,
I have revised the above posting to give proper credit to the ideas stated on Wiglington and Wenks. You will have to ask them for that permission, I included their address. Sorry for the confusion.
I had no idea others would have an interest in my idea collecting blog.
