science news for kids ~

a blog post showing examples of the versatility of using Google Docs. Science and Math template examples available on this blog also.

This has a wealth of natural science information. "Sponsored in part by the Interagency Education Research Initiative, the Homeland Foundation and the University of Michigan Museum of Zoology. This material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation."

Videos of experiments you can't do at home, interactive games (mostly drill with simple graphics and no audio), a glossary, and science answers section.

Good, not great.

wondering about a particular topic, just type in the topic and search for all kinds of information in the area of science. We find this very helpful.

Science Curriculum education children educational homeschool. SOme sections have not been completed yet.

You can access the material even without giving them your email. Not all areas have been completed. Even though it says K-12, I don't see high school material.

From MIT, videos for high school science, math, and engineering. Most videos are in English but some are only available in Arabic right now.

Downloadable science animations, gaming

This is an interesting site that could appeal to a visual learner~ lots of ideas and inspiration along with easy to follow research links in different areas.

lots of resources, seems like a mega site for learning science. Clicking on one topic in an area brings you to a list of subtopics for learning. I think this could be very helpful in lesson planning ~

Experiments in biology, physics and chemistry

Speaker with a wonderful flair for making complex science understandable.

"The Tree of Life Web Project (ToL) is a collaborative effort of biologists and nature enthusiasts from around the world. On more than 10,000 World Wide Web pages, the project provides information about biodiversity, the characteristics of different groups of organisms, and their evolutionary history (phylogeny)." Each page contains information about a particular group, e.g., salamanders, segmented worms, phlox flowers, tyrannosaurs, euglenids, Heliconius butterflies, club fungi, or the vampire squid. ToL pages are linked one to another hierarchically, in the form of the evolutionary tree of life. Starting with the root of all Life on Earth and moving out along diverging branches to individual species, the structure of the ToL project thus illustrates the genetic connections between all living things." This looks like an outstanding natural science collaborative resource!
