Dragonfly is a web-companion to the print magazine, yet can be enjoyed separately. Each bimonthly issue focuses on a science theme. Our principle objectives are to involve children in the creative process of science, to help children see how science relates to their lives, to engage minority and at-risk children in science, and to help teachers and parents guide active, experiential learning more confidently. There is a Dragonfly Teacher's companion to each print magazine issue. General science classes at the upper elementary and junior high level could use this site for enrichment, for science fair ideas, and for practice in setting up good experiments.
Students can send in their original solutions to real problems.
