Edheads.org is a great resource for Science-related activities in the classroom. I've highlighted two of my favorites below (Weather and Design a Cell Phone). Each activity under the "choose an activity" tab includes the appropriate grade levels, as some of these are more age-appropriate for middle school. This would make a fantastic center choice.
Another great center activity or whole-class activity is to take a virtual field trip to Plimoth Plantation. Scholastic offers so many amazing Thanksgiving learning opportunities that are definitely worth experiencing with your students. Click here to go on a pilgrim adventure!
The final website I'm sharing today is one that really deserves it's own stage. However, several of you told me this morning that you are looking for strong online activities so I didn't want to wait on this one. It is called turtlediary.com and you and your students will absolutely love it. Created by other teachers, the homepage offers different sections that are divided by topics: science, language arts, biographies, math, and more. This website makes for another great center or whole class learning experience.
As a reminder, you can reserve the computer lab by going to the Library Calendar:
Happy Tuesday!
