Great interactive website

We used this website in a 6th grade physical science lesson about kinetic and potential energy. The activity allowed students to design a roller coaster and see if it passed both safety and fun inspections. It was really fun and complemented the lesson well. I have not checked out the other activities but there are links for all content areas so it might be worth looking at.

  2. Good eye! I went to this site and found a video about how rural schools can keep a place for their art programs when faced with budget cuts. There is a lot of stuff on art, and probably every other content area. Thanks. This blog assignment is getting us to network and share ideas and resources. Do you think maybe that was the idea? hmmmmmm
