If you need a review activity for a science or math lesson, this site may be just what you're looking for. Scroll through an amazing collection of topics, spanning multiple grade levels, that include atoms, cells, oceanography, electric circuits, geometry basics, and much more. After selecting a topic, the site will randomly choose a related term, and students must guess the word before the "atom man" completely decays. Send in your own word list and a hangman game will be created for you.

This site is for the curious student who wants to investigate how some of America's most enduring inventions from the 19th and 20th centuries came to be. Browse through pencil-and-ink industrial drawings of shopping carts, Crayola crayons, T-shirts, and more. A useful resource for gaining insight into American culture and the creative process.

In the Classroom

Use the images on this site to compliment a lecture on the inventions of the 20th century. While the test is interesting, it might be a little much for a class for of lower-level readers. Include the images as a way to capture the simplicity of original designs, and compare the initial plans of these inventions to the mega-products they are today. The images are interesting, particularly the Crayola tests, and will capture kids attention as they are inventions that have impacted their own lives in a big way.

ScienceBuddies offers a large variety of science resources including science fair projects and free STEM lessons. From the top menu bar, select Science Fair Project to find a Topic Selection Wizard. This tool uses a short questionnaire to guide students to recommended projects based on length of time needed to work on the project, grade level, and topic for research. Be sure to also visit the teachers' portion of the site to find STEM lesson plans for all grade levels, science fair tools, engineering design information, and much more.

In the Classroom

Be sure to bookmark this site as a useful resource for any science topic. Take advantage of the free lessons aligned to Next Generation Science Standards to add to your current content. Replace paper and enhance classroom technology use with an online bulletin board like Lino, reviewed here, throughout your science unit to record student questions, ideas, and ongoing discussions. If you use video content during your science lessons, consider incorporating a tool like MoocNote, reviewed here, or EdPuzzle, reviewed here, to integrate quizzes and polls directly into your video. Instead of a written or oral presentation of student research, transform classroom technology use and have students use Sway, reviewed here, to create a multimedia presentation incorporating video, images, and text.
