I’m happy I found ClickSchooling which brings us websites we can use in in our Homeschooling Classroom. I’m not good at Science and wouldn’t know how to teach Science even though our children are required to take Science.
Instead I would like to bring you Homeschool Resources from ClickSchooling you might want to check into which is Homeschool Resources: Science. If you’ve used either of these resources I would like to know what you thought of them. If not I would like to know if you would check into them and why.
Science A-Z, from Learning A-Z, an award-winning online program for grades K-6 delivers a broad range of content to help students, read, write, think about, and do science.
Age Range: All (All grades; children with parental supervision)
The suffix “ology” refers to the study or a particular field or academic discipline. At this website sponsored by the American Museum of Natural History you can explore archaeology, marine biology, paleontology, and other fields of science such as genetics, astronomy, biodiversity, earth science, physics and more!
When you get to the site, you may be overwhelmed with all of the fun choices. On the left of the screen, the “Find Stuff to See and Do” link will bring you to the list of programs found at the museum along with links to other resources.
In the center of the main menu, explore some of the fields of science. There will be links for games, stories, hands-on activities and videos:
