Collections of Science Websites Other people and organizations have put together first rate collections of science related websites. Click here to see some of them!

Lesson Plans, Assessment, Misconceptions, Science Education Research, Inclusion, Children's Literature, Demonstrations, Interdisciplinary Connections & more! This will connect you to several sites that have teacher created lesson plans, links to websites with children's stories and reviews of children's literature & suggestions for interdisciplinary connections.There are also links to sites that address students' science misconceptions. This link will also connect you to several sites that have teacher created lesson plans, websites with children's stories and reviews of children's literature. Once you've developed lessons you need to know if students have learned anything. That's where assessment comes in. Learn about alternative assessment and rubrics (scoring guides).

PARENTS  Research shows that children who have parents involved in their education do better at school. What can we do to promote parental involvement? How can we improve the home-school connections? How can we make the best use of open house and back to school night? These sites provide some good suggestions.
