Great website with lesson plans and lots of multimedia covering basic chemistry topics. Though titled "middle school chemistry" much of the material can be referred to or used for basic high school chemistry or even biology (such as the basics on bonding, water molecules, etc).

Worth a bump, I stumbled upon this gem today. Excellent resource, there is even a free pdf textbook.

Middle School Chemistry lessons with worksheets and standards.

Take part in what is being called the biggest experiment ever. As part of the International Year of Chemistry, children from cross the world are measuring the pH of bodies of water in them. Collect real data to plot the effects of climate change on your seas, rivers and lakes. http://ictmagic.wikispaces.com/Science

Simulations for science and math. (Physics, biology, chemistry, earth science, and math.) Also divided by grade level.

"Gradually, an important and growing evidence of the impact of understanding neuroscience in terms of learning and education has started to inform pedagogy, along with a better appreciation of how we learn. Yet, there is a lot of confusion and misunderstanding to what neuroscience science is, and many within the education sector would struggle to explain the principles, science and research to recognise how the brain processes information. Fundamentally, neuroscience literally means the 'science of the nervous system', making use of the principles and many techniques from the main science disciplines of physics, chemistry and biology."

A periodic table of podcasts from Royal Society of Chemistry covering most elements. You can download or listen online. http://ictmagic.wikispaces.com/Science

This is an chemistry curriculum example.  It includes a summary of the unit, essential questions, standards, vocab, concepts, and assessment tasks.

Watch videos that explain science, math chemistry and more using current news, sports, and everyday life.

This 10-week course for non-science majors focuses on a single problem: assessing the risk of human-caused climate change. The story ranges from physics to chemistry, biology, geology, fluid mechanics, and quantum mechanics, to economics and social sciences. The class will consider evidence from the distant past and projections into the distant future, keeping the human time scale of the next several centuries as the bottom line. The lectures follow a textbook, "Global Warming, Understanding the Forecast," written for the course.
