The series reviews many Web sites and gives ideas for using them with teachers' lesson plans. Each book is devoted to a particular subject area. The series also has its own Web site that can provide direct links to educational Web sites, newsgroups, ftp sites with lesson plans, a resource page, and a directory of educators. There is also a link on the Web site for a virtual auditorium to chat live with other educators. This book lists the educational science Web sites for grades K to 6, gives their URL, and describes the site in one paragraph.
Many listings have ideas of ways to integrate the site activity into the classroom.
Web sites of educational resources and teaching with technology are also included. One typical listing in the Space chapter is called Live from Mars. The description describes the curriculum materials and an interactive activity where students take a virtual tour of Mars. The integration idea for this site is a visit a kids corner where they see pictures of other classrooms and samples of their work. Black and white images of home pages of Web sites can be found throughout the book.
