presentations to help kids learn key core content concepts. This is a great site.
http://www.biology4kids.com/files/systems_main.html
This is a great site for simple explanations of scientific processes. It may be a little juvenile but the students could
get lots of use out of this site for review before they start to go really deep into a topic. I also love the picture at the
top of the page and it has given me ideas for my web page.
http://www.bioedonline.org/
Great power points free to use are included on this site. As well as great news articles that are up to date and
interesting. I think students will love the different articles about all kinds of scientific events that are currently in
the news like Mad Cow and Stem Cell Research.

geometry, and calculus. There are also small unit quizzes and an algebra worksheet generator that would work well
for creating homework worksheets.

I like this page because of the way that they organized the information for the students. The take a wide subject

at.

high school and this website gives tons of ideas on how to make that transition easier on both me and the students.

http://www.teenreads.com/
As a future English teacher, I hope to encourage my students to read and possibly give them one day a week that
they can bring their own book and read in class. I know that I can spend hours in a library trying to find the perfect
book, but the rows and stacks of books can seem discouraging. This site, Teen Reads, is a hip website that allows
kids to go online and look up a book that might interest them. The site has hundreds of reviews on books, features
tons of new books every week, and allows kids to search according to author, title, or subject.

http://pbskids.org/eekoworld/index_flash.html
This site is very interactive. I would use it in my class because I believe that students can learn valuable
lessons from using the tols on the site and never feel like they are learning. I would definitely use this in my
classroom when teaching science on environments and interdependence.
