| Description: | When you get to the site you will see that the menu is set up like a university campus. Click on the Observatory and learn about the solar system and space. Click on the Geometry Center and learn about fractals and tessellations. Click on the Library and discover information about the weather, seasons, plants and flowers and much more! The site is designed so that users can create their own animations as they experiment with new scientific concepts. This website is one that can provide an ongoing science curriculum. You will undoubtedly need to bookmark it and return often to take advantage of the many offerings. The site also has a "campus store" where you can purchase some of the materials and books recommended for further study in the activities section. |
