Cool On-Line Science and Math Activities for Middle School Students
As a sixth grade science and math teacher, I am always looking for educational, interesting, fun and appropriate ways for my students to use the internet in the classroom. Assembled here is a collection of internet sites that are related to science and/or to math. (Is there anything in the world that ISN'T somehow related to science or to math??) They cover a range of topics and interests. These links can be used individually, matched to a curriculum unit the students are studying, or can be an open-ended learning center from which students can select their favorite topic to investigate. Students can work individually or in small groups, and journaled responses can be used to indicate what site was visited, what topic was explored, what was learned, and what new questions were generated from the online experience. Have fun, and please share any comments, suggestions, or other cool sites you have found that should be added here. Thanks, and ENJOY.
Links to interesting and informative sites with historical and/or biographical information about real people important to math or science in today's world. Who would you like to meet?
