Internet Resources-3 Great Sites

The Science Spot is a site I use regularly for my middle school science class, technology and high school biology classes.  It is created by a middle school science teacher in Illinois. Her units are well supported with differentiation and a variety of media: powerpoints, website links, interactive links, supply resources and worksheets.  

The Biology Project features problem sets and tutorials.  It is currently being updated to be compatible for people using assistive technology!  The students like to use the site because 
the text is considerate and they don't feel like they have to wade through paragraph after paragraph.  It is also supplemented with inter-active tutorials.

Nobel Prize My students are used to me saying "let's go visit the folks over at the Nobel Prize".  They like the educational games there and I have busted students playing them when they are not supposed to be.  The site contains lots of information about all of the prizes and their laureates, and of course lots of fun scientific games.
