Extra Credit:Chem4kids

Cool Site For Middle Schoolers

I found a site that can be useful to middle schoolers. It is known as http://www.Chem4kids.com . It is an interactive, educational and fun site. It is also a colorful site. Andrew Rader sponsors this site. This site has lessons and quizzes about science topics. It also has test resources and related links to other websites(geography4kids). These related links are at the bottom of a lesson. Also, the site has a link to math lessons. This site provides basic information about any science topic(ex. matter, biology, atoms). At the bottom of the page there is a google search tool where you can type in what you want to search/find. There are some positive and negative aspects about this site:

Positive Aspects:
* you can learn about different science topics
* there are quizzes and tests you can take
* about 20 questions for a quiz, more than 35 questions for a test
* experiments that you can try out
* you can prepare for the NJASK, GEPA, CTY for John Hopkins, assessments in school
Negative Aspects:
* one paper per lesson /topic
* there are no project ideas
* only one test or quiz for a topic

This site has a lot of uses. Students can prepare themselves for the NJASK, GEPA, CTY for John Hopkins, assessments in school. Teachers can look at this site and get ideas for lab experiments. Students can get homework help from this site. Students will learn basic information about science topics. Also, the website launched a new math link. You can get practice from reading the lessons the website gives and doing their tests. I would recommend this website, because there are soooo many uses.
