    This is a good site for those seniors whose Senior Project topic is on environmental issues. It is a springboard for choosing a specific focal point. It would also be good for the students to use for choosing an action plan for their project. Site is also a great science site for younger kids if you choose to look at only the bullet facts provided.

    This EPA site gives the reader lots of options. One can learn about information where you live, popular topics, and current environmental news. I typed my zip code and found out the air quality, water and land information, the health risks, and energy produced in my area. I also explored some of the topics such as health and safety issues. Students could use this site to approach project-based learning and inquiry projects.

    This website would be great for upper elementary or even middle school when learning about different ways to recycle and also about things that are not good for the environment. There are teacher resources as well as a game where students get to be the new city manager and help clean up the town by picking up litter and recycling. By clicking on different parts of the town they learn about harful and beneficial items. Kids do need to be able to read well to play this game which is why I think it would be best for upper elementary.

    This website provides information on the climate, weather, the atmosphere, oceans and coasts, and marine life. Students can explore tornadoes, hurricanes, and other weather phenomenon. It provides text and video information along with teacher resources and classroom materials. I think this would be a great site for a middle to high school science classes.
