Students can create, illustrate, narrate, and publish their own storybooks, making this an excellent resource for supporting writing and creativity in the classroom. Students can design books using templates or from scratch, add images and characters, and even collaborate with others or share their work with a wider audience. A major benefit for teachers is that the platform is free to use online, allowing students to create and share digital books and read stories from a global library at no cost. While optional paid features include printing hardcover or paperback books or downloading digital versions, the core storytelling and publishing tools remain completely free, making it a valuable resource for integrating writing, technology, and creativity into classroom instruction.

The California Academy of Sciences Citizen Science Toolkit is a free, downloadable resource designed to help teachers integrate real-world citizen science projects into classroom instruction or afterschool programs. The toolkit includes ready-to-use lessons, readings, and worksheets that introduce students to citizen science while building skills in observation, data collection, and scientific inquiry. Organized into three sections (Learn, Act, and Extend), it guides educators from understanding the concept of citizen science to designing their own projects and connecting activities to national standards. It empowers students to see themselves as contributors to authentic scientific research while supporting hands-on, inquiry-based learning.
tag(s): citizen science (43)
In the Classroom
Use the toolkit's "Learn" section to introduce students to citizen science. Have students read or explore examples, then create a simple anchor chart that defines citizen science and lists ways people contribute to real research. Following the ideas in the "Act" section, take students outside to observe and record data on plants, insects, or weather patterns. Students can document findings in journals or digital tools like NotebookLM, reviewed here, practicing real-world observation and recording skills. Using guidance from the toolkit, students can create their own citizen science-style project.
This resource requires PDF reader software like Adobe Acrobat.

The USGS "Tell Us!" (Did You Feel It?) earthquake event page is an interactive citizen science tool that allows you to report your personal experiences during an earthquake and view real-time data collected from others. On this page, participants enter details such as location, time, and their feelings, helping scientists gather valuable information about shaking intensity across different areas. The data is then used to create maps and visualizations that show how people experience earthquakes, complementing scientific measurements from seismic instruments. This resource provides an engaging way for students to explore earthquakes, understand how data is collected, and see how community contributions support scientific research.
tag(s): citizen science (43), earthquakes (52), natural disasters (21), weather (177)
In the Classroom
Present a recent earthquake event from the page and have students imagine they experienced it. Students can fill out a mock report describing what they would feel, see, and notice, helping them connect personal experience to scientific data collection. Have students analyze the intensity map on the site and identify patterns in the shaking (stronger vs. weaker). Have them compare locations and discuss why shaking varies with distance, terrain, and structures. Have students collect data points from the site (such as intensity levels or number of reports) and create graphs using Infographics Presentation Templates, reviewed here.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
