"The Molecularium seeks to 'excite audiences of all ages to explore and understand the molecular nature of the world around them.' The project's website offers several tools that will be useful to educators. Nanospace, a web-based virtual theme park designed for students between first and eighth grade, utilizes games, activities, and short animations to provide an entertaining learning environment for children to explore the atomic world. In addition, under the Educators tab, teachers will find a Guide to NanoSpace that includes an overview of the games and attractions. Downloadable resources, such as a Teacher's Resource Guide to the Molecularium Project, are also available."

This is a fabulous resource with practical lesson plans, valuable resources, and more.  I've used several of their lessons.  There's an interesting story behind how they "earned" the money to remain free.
