They range from short games and word plays through to quick demonstrations. Many of these have been kindly donated by teachers. Fun-size is particularly useful when you are working outside your specialist area at KS3. These activities are based around the 'Who am I ? ' theme. If you would like to contribute ideas for future themes, please get in touch. pdboyer Tue, 24 Aug 2010 14:06:09 GMT http://www.google.com/help/features.html A cool page with lots of ways to search directly for stuff like weather, conversions, spelling, movie showtimes, restaurants, public data, etc., etc., etc. pdboyer Wed, 12 May 2010 01:57:48 GMT http://www.glerl.noaa.gov/res/projects/food_web/food_web.html GLERL has recently developed food web diagrams for all of the Great Lakes and Lake St. Clair. The major species in each lake are briefly described, along with a diagram summarizing the ecosystem energy flow (who eats or is eaten by whom!). These diagrams are based on a model from a paper published in 2003 supported by both NOAA and the Great Lakes Fishery Commission. Summarizing the model results in diagram form was accomplished by GLERL’s Sea Grant Extension Educator. They were updated and modified for each lake by a host of researchers. pdboyer Sun, 23 May 2010 18:46:48 GMT http://chej.org/campaigns/childproofing/projects/green-flags/ Green Flag School Program – A Guide To Action – Grades 9 – 12 “A Guide to Action”, the grades 9-12 version of the Green Flag Start-Up Kit, provides schools with everything they need to get started on earning environmental awards through investigation, education, and action.  It includes tips and activities on how to form a team and set goals, how to work together with their school administration to create positive change, and how to generate media attention around their efforts.  It also includes the School Environment Survey, a comprehensive walk-through form for teams to assess their school’s environmental practices. pdboyer Wed, 18 May 2011 01:41:44 GMT http://science-class.net/Fun.htm Resources for elementary and middle school science educators.

Great for MS science service-learning project for garden. Excellent resource except lacks key and seed dispersal images aren't the greatest, making this hard for the teacher and possibly frustrating for the students. pdboyer Thu, 15 Apr 2010 23:14:52 GMT http://www.koshland-science-museum.org/index.jsp From the National Academy of Science pdboyer Sun, 15 Nov 2009 17:12:54 GMT http://wiki.nsdl.org/index.php/MiddleSchoolPortal/Vocabulary_Development pdboyer Sun, 07 Mar 2010 17:51:14 GMT
