Children's Literature Books for Science - This site from an ENC publication provides titles and brief summaries of children's books useful for introducing science concepts. Dragonfly Web Pages - These pages are the online companion to Dragonfly Magazine. Dragonfly is written to inspire children to become active researchers in their own investigations. Thoughtful challenges invite children to join with their peers and with scientists in national and international investigations. Earth Science Activities and Lessons - This site provides a collection of activities and lessons developed by teachers for teachers.
Topics range from geology to water to soils to weather.
Activities are categorized by age level and topic. By using Snacks in the classroom, teachers can climb out of the textbooks and join their students in discovering science for themselves. Each Snack begins with a photograph of itself, a short introduction and a list of the materials needed. Other sections give assembly instructions, contain descriptions of how to use the completed exhibits, and explain the science behind them. Most of the Snacks can be completed by one person.
