Welcome!Dateline: 03/16/97The World Wide Web has a lot of great places to learn about science. Sometimes it seems that there are too many places to visit! Here at Science & Nature for Kids youÆll find the best in science and nature for kids. Follow me on a journey of some of my favorite places to visit. Younger kids will enjoy Bill Nye the Science Guy. Kids can participate in the demo of the day, read the latest news, search for information, and learn more about the TV show.If you are interested in science fairs, a great place to start is the Science Fair Idea Exchange, where you will discover great ideas as well as share your own. Science Bytes at the University of Tennessee has a series of interesting articles for elementary and secondary students. Older kids will find that the U.S. Geological Survey registry of Earth and Environmental Science Internet resources leads to information in astronomy, biology, environment, physics and more. Tell your parents about The U.S. Department of Education site, Helping Your Child Learn Science, for activities to share with your parents at home and in the community.Teachers may be interesed in getting involved with the Globe Program where more than 4000 schools in 50 countries are working with research scientists to learn more about our planet. In this site, we'll visit premium kid-approved sites, plan timely field trips to learn more about current events. We will build a valuable library of resources to help with all the tricky homework questions. I invite everyone to share their suggestions, favorite stops, and best bookmark lists. Have you found a great product, software program, or have a idea or story to share? Announce it on our bulletin board or join in a chat session. Let this be a roadmap to adventure for kids to share with friends, teachers, and parents! |
