Chem4kids - Andrew Rader Studios
Grades
6 to 12tag(s): atoms (42), chemicals (39), elements (32), matter (47), periodic table (44)
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.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

tag(s): DAT device agnostic tool (143)
In the Classroom
Share the site on an interactive whiteboard or projector, and use it as a springboard for an ethics discussion during science class. Though there are a wide array of articles, some capture and illustrate arguments over the debate of stem cell research, Pluto's classification, and climate change. At the end of a unit, open one of these articles and use the real-world information provided to spark a classroom debate. Students can use the knowledge they have gained, in addition to seeing its practical application. This is a very useful site for science enrichment!Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

Use as a resource for finding more information about a variety of different scientists told from a scientist's perspective. Share the videos on your interactive whiteboard or projector. Consider having students create their own report about the importance of research and not just the biographical information about a scientist. Encourage students to make their own videos (or other presentation tool) about scientists to place on a wiki, site, or blog. Have students use one of the many TeachersFirst Edge multimedia tools reviewed here.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
