Cool Science Sites
My favorite sites for students are as follows:
Science Jokes (only clean jokes here!)
Funology.com (this site takes science to a whole new level!)
Eclipse Information from NASA
Discovery Channel site for kids
Middle School Links (links for all subjects, but the science links are FANTASTIC)
Scholastic Games (games for all school subjects, even Spanish)
And then there are site for teachers too:
We Use Math Every Day from the show "Numb3rs"
Texas Instruments' site for middle school lesson plans
Brainpop (offers 15 days for free!)
East Valley Tribune (offers students activities to increase critical thinking skills and reading comprehension)
Middle School Portal (offers plans for science and math teachers)
Explore Learning (has gizmos for science and math teachers)
