Science Learning Network: Explore Our Resources
“The Science Learning Network (SLN) is an online community of educators, students, schools, science museums and other institutions demonstrating a new model for inquiry science education.” The Explore Our Resources portion of their website is a portal to inquiry resources that have been developed by each museum in the Science Learning Network. Here is just a glimpse of where this website leads:
- Monarchs and Migration. Follow the migration of monarch butterflies and learn about their fascinating lifecycle.
- Contemporary Issues in Science. A resource for the teaching of contemporary science, looking at the influence of genes and environment on behavior.
- pH Factor. Acid or base? Find out with the pH Factor resource!
- Auroras: Paintings in the Sky. Far north in the night sky, a faint glow appears on the horizon. Green and red flames of light stretch across the sky. Find out more about these mysterious lights.
- From Windmills to Whirligigs. Visit Vollis Simpson's Whirligig Farm, a yard filled with spinning ducks, airplanes, and discarded metal pieces of all sizes and shapes.
