Using SAS Curriculum Pathways to Learn More About Science Concepts

SAS Curriculum Pathways is a site offered FREE to any k-12 Public school.  There are interactives, web lessons and lab activities that can be downloaded and used in your classes - or for review at home by your students.

We have a Bay account - you need to ask me for the student user name.

Using Teacher's Domain To Support Science Lessons

Teachersdomain.org is a free site that offers videos, interactives and lessons through the resources of PBS. You can create an account to save "bookbags" of your favorite activities, which can be shared with others.  Each video or lesson interactive comes with a background essay for the teacher, discussion questions and a transcript. Many of the resource videos can be downloaded and remixed if you have a free account.
