To create programs in Scratch, kids snap together graphical programming blocks, much like LEGO bricks or puzzle pieces. As kids create and share Scratch projects, they learn important mathematical and computational concepts, while also learning to think creatively, reason systematically, and work collaboratively. pdboyer Sun, 28 Nov 2010 20:39:57 GMT http://www.everythingesl.net/lessons/content_based_science_instruct_64209.php Our English language learners are now required to take standardized tests with the rest of the school population. NCLB has mandated they ELLs demonstrate annual yearly progress. Content based ESL instruction is a way to help ELLs reach this goal. pdboyer Tue, 29 Dec 2009 01:21:36 GMT http://pbskids.org/whiteboard Could it be true that they don't yet have science games on their site???
