Middle Education
| We're continually reviewing new sites and adding resources, and appreciate your comments and suggestions. Suggest a link here |
| The Internet Scout project at the University of Wisconsin provides
here a valuable resource tool "to support effective use of the
Internet by educators and researchers in the US." These folks
provide Internet announcements updated daily and available in archive,
explanations of the best Internet tools, and a KIDS section where K-12
students review sites. |
| The history and traditions of the Boy Scouts of America are described
in thoughtful detail on this site. |
| This is a great site with a gallery of wonderful photos, information
on all kinds of reef animals, links, and java games like a word search,
a crossword, and a slider. Soon to come are "Jewels of the Sea"
and "Aquarium Resources". A very well done and gorgeous site. |
| This site has lovely gallery photos, an informative tour of the solar
system, links, a Challenger memorial, and java games. Very well put
together, it's an all around beautiful site. |
| The Seeds of Change Garden web site is the result of the Smithsonian
Institution's Natural Partners Initiative, and was created by the New
Mexico State University College of Agriculture and Home Economics. There
are garden activities for all seasons, recipes, and lots of wonderful
information about the origins of food crops. Turn on the Teacher/Parent
Notes and get extra information on each page. Cool! |
| This site details a space exploration simulation program set up
for 4th graders in the Coshocton, Ohio, public schools. Detailed in word
and picture, it looks like an excellent effort with great student interest
and involvement. |
| This is a great spot for you and your child to learn about astronomy
together. One part, the High-Energy Astrophysics Learning Center, is
pretty advanced in its study of X-ray and gamma-ray technology, but it's
well done and allows you to ask questions of professional high-energy
astronomers. A nice feature is the linking of possibly unfamiliar words
to a glossary entry. |
| Lessons and useful information for teaching statistics to students in
grades K-12. Nice breakout of information. |
| Here's a huge research library of annotated links in 25 categories,
bringing the resources of the Web to you quickly and easily. Grade level
sorting and visual content notations will be helpful additions for
teachers and students alike. |
| This impressive site displays the results of a collaborative effort of
Emerson Middle School and the University of Michigan Museum of Art. The
students worked with painted panel pieces, an Asian ink scroll, and a
pointillist painting. See and learn about the originals, see the
students' own work, and read from the discussion board which they used
to communicate with museum personnel. Very nice. |
| Online reviews of children's software for parents, teachers, and kids.
A neat resource. |
| Barbara J. Feldman reviews several great related sites each
week for newspapers across the country. This site contains those excellent
reviews, available by topic or chronologically. This is a wonderful source
of interesting material on the Web, whether you’re surfing with kids
or not! |
| Many full-text fairy and folk tales from countries around the world,
plus links to other stories. This is a wonderful spot for young readers.
|
| A very informative article by Mitton Reynolds concerning middle school
students performing community service and the benefits associated with
it. |
| An online scientific playground for kids and adults, and a great way
to learn about how technology impacts our lives. The interactive
exhibits are a delight. |
| This site tries to give you "a clearer insight into what
life is like for children in Thailand," complete with a chance to ask
questions of Thai students. There’s lots of information, in word and
picture, on the country’s language, culture, and economy. This fun
site also lets you visit a Thai school and a Thai home, learn about
scouting in Thailand, and more. |
| New in 1997, ThinkQuest Junior is modeled after the international
ThinkQuest competition which encourages older students to form teams to
research and build educational Web sites. TQ Junior is for US students
in grades 4-6, but the idea is the same. If you'd like to get involved,
this site will tell you how. |
| Under the auspices of the Los Alamos National Laboratory, MegaMath
attempts "to bring unusual and important mathematical ideas to
elementary school classrooms so that young people and their teachers can
think about them." Some very interesting projects, and they'd be
fun for older students as well! |
