Complete a free online registration and begin to explore an impressive collection of learning modules that address chemistry, general science, physics, math in science, process of science, earth science, and scientists and research. Many modules contain interactive animations, a glossary, related current events, practice exercises, and biographic information about scientists who worked with that particular concept. Members can personalize each module with comments, links, or notes.

tag(s): acids and bases (7), carbon (16), cells (83), darwin (13), earth (188), energy (137), gravity (46), light (56), matter (48), molecules (42), optics (12), paleontology (28), periodic table (47), photosynthesis (19), planets (119), reading comprehension (141), rock cycle (25), rocks (43), scientific method (51), scientists (71), space (230), water (101), waves (14)

In the Classroom

Include this site to supplement your current grade 6-12 science curriculum. Use the resources to differentiate instruction for gifted students in lower grades or as remediation for struggling students in older grades. Use the student materials for differentiating instruction or as homework. Have students share their learning or understanding of a topic with video explanations using a tool like Gravity. Gravity is a tool for video responses to a question along with comments from peers. Extend technology use in your classroom and take student learning a step further by asking them to create and share their own multimedia presentation along with suggestions for learning about their topic of interest. Use a tool like Sway. Sway is a presentation tool that offers multimedia options including text, video, and images.

This series of articles reveals the chemistry behind everyday products like toothpaste, silly putty, Cheese Wiz, and erasers. These fascinating and sometimes shocking revelations will motivate your students to pursue an investigation of their own favorite product. This award-winning site can be incorporated into an environmental science unit or used as a basis for a research project.

tag(s): chemicals (39)

In the Classroom

Use these articles as a way to show how chemistry affects students' everyday life. Once a week, select a product and show it to students via printed article or via interactive whiteboard. Have students create concept maps or Graphic Organizers, reviewed here, showing how chemistry led to the creation of the product.

Oxford University's "pre-university" chemistry introduction may well be beyond the scope of most high school students, but the characteristically verbose presentations provide an interesting approach for an introduction to the subject. While secondary chemistry teachers may find the approach interesting, its actual utility in the classroom will depend largely on your local curriculum.

Oxford University's online chemistry offerings include this collection of "virtual experiments" in a number of areas, along with a complete online "pre-university chemistry course." While the entire collection may be more than most secondary teachers can use, the individual components - with lots of animations and video - are well worth a look, especially if your laboratory resources are limited.

This sizable collection of animations for undergraduate chemistry includes Quicktime, Shockwave, and animate GIF images. The utility of these for secondary classrooms will depend on your local curriculum, but the collection is extensive enough that it's worth a look if you're trying to find an illustration for a concept or principle.

Here's a collection of science lesson plans covering disciplines from geology to earth science, chemistry, and general science. Each includes complete procedures, standards references, and discussion. Some of these lessons use video clips as an integral component, so teachers will want to plan accordingly.

tag(s): dna (52), evolution (84), genetics (83)

In the Classroom

The lesson plans here are excellent! Choose from many lessons (levels 4-12) to use in class to save you time. All lessons have a summary explaining what you and students will encounter with that lesson. Some example titles are The Ladder of Life where through video and Web-based activities, the students will develop a greater understanding of what DNA does in a cell. Students will be able to assemble DNA parts in order to simulate DNA strands. They will also have the opportunity to experimentally view DNA through an extraction technique included in the lesson. Another is Evolution: Its Effect Throughout Geological Time and the Controversy where students review the basics of Charles Darwin's Theory of Evolution. They use the World Wide Web to explore the various stages of evolution, over geological time, and learn how each organism fits into the evolutionary story. These are just two representatives of how the many lessons are presented.

This site offers an introduction to three areas of bioology: cells, microbes, plants, invertebrates, vertebrates, and animal systems, along with a set of study materials. Though the concepts are "real science," the language is approachable and interesting enough to keep students engaged. This site is well worth a look for use as either a self-study or a resource to accompany an introduction to biology.

tag(s): animals (277), cells (83), plants (140)

In the Classroom

This site will compliment your study of cells. Use it as an introduction or review. Share this site on your interactive whiteboard or projector. Have students explore this site independently or in pairs. If used independently put the site on a classroom computer and use as a center. To use in pairs, bring students to the lab or use a classroom set of laptops. This site would also be a good one to add to your class webpage or blog for use at home. Have students create a simple infographic sharing their findings using Visme, reviewed here.

What a find! Chem4 Kids contains six sections ranging from Matter, to Math in Chemistry, and Chemical Reactions. Information on each topic is presented clearly. Hyperlinks are included to assist students in understanding terms.

tag(s): atoms (47), chemicals (39), elements (31), matter (48), periodic table (47)

In the Classroom

The explanations are clear and concise and the examples are everyday items. Students should create their own flashcards or work together as partners or in small groups to create flashcards for each section. Each topic and term has what looks like hand-drawn images for examples. Where possible challenge students to draw their own examples. Students could use Padlet, reviewed here, to brainstorm a list of examples (images) to replace the ones Chem4kids has for their flashcards. Next, have students create the drawings using Draw.Chat, reviewed here. Have students save their drawing(s) to their computer, or if you are cloud based save it there, to add to student made flashcards. Use a flashcard tool such as Flashcard Stash, reviewed here. Ask students to think about replacing the image examples used on Chem4kids to help them to understand the topic, and drawing their own replacement examples will help them remember the information. Then use and image annotation tool like Phrase.it, reviewed here, to explain their replacement.

MIT's contribution to the numerous on-line periodic tables.

tag(s): periodic table (47)

In the Classroom

Save this site as a favorite on classroom computers to allow students to use MIT's periodic table as help with studying, worksheets, and review. What is great about this periodic table is that it provides additional information and images on all the elements, which can be accessed merely by clicking on them. A very useful site for any chemistry class!
