"This list of plants can be grown for the parts of the produce that you would typically consume, on even small portion that you might throw any or compost. How exactly can you do this? Check out the links below to find out:"
Science and Plants for Schools has been core-funded by the Gatsby Charitable Foundation since it began in 1990 and our reputation has been built by the many talented and committed people who have been involved with our projects since then. We continue to encourage those with interest in our work to suggest projects and join us in partnerships. We work closely with other organisations in the biology community, we consult with teachers to make sure our work is what they need, and we talk to scientists to ensure we know what is going on in plant science today.
We are based in the Cambridge University Botanic Garden, with close links with the University of Cambridge Department of Plant Sciences, the Sainsbury Lab Cambridge and to the Gatsby Plant Science Summer School Project undergraduate education programme at the University of Leeds.
This ebook specifically aligns with the Grade 6 Saskatchewan Science Curriculum. The book contains a songwriting guide and 8 song writing activities and original songs as well as a video.

What are scientists really like? – video
Under their white coats, scientists are much less intimidating than many people seem to think
In NYC a school has funding to do a short vid on each of the 342 parts of the IB Chem sylabus - they have done about 140 so far - but these are IB specific (and some have zombies too...)
Learning Science Through Inquiry
An Eight Part K-8 Professional Development Workshop Series
Inquiry-based teaching, central to the National Science Education Standards and the Benchmarks for Science Literacy, should not be an isolated occurrence, but a comprehensive and ongoing approach. However, many teachers did not learn this way themselves, as children or during their preparation to become teachers. This eight-part workshop shows inquiry teaching and learning in action in real classrooms. Whether you have already experimented with inquiry teaching and want to enhance your practice, or are new to the approach, this workshop will show you how to make it work in the classroom and how it benefits students.
The Cassiopia Project is an effort to make HD science education videos available to anyone who wants them. If you can visualize it, then understanding is not far behind. Making Science Simple
The Scientific Literacy Project (SLP) is a federally funded project designed to help kindergarten teachers use inquiry-based science instruction that integrates literacy with science teaching and learning. An important goal of the project is document how and what children learn about science from such instruction.
"The premise is that people living in the future have contacted us in the present, to answer a question: What event occurred between our time and theirs that led to the loss of civilization’s historical records? Students must decode clues in hidden messages, and in response find and provide information about Earth’s current condition, such as temperature and species data, to help people in the future deduce what wound up happening."

Scitable is a free science library and personal learning tool brought to you by Nature Publishing Group, the world's leading publisher of science.
Scitable currently concentrates on genetics and cell biology, which include the topics of evolution, gene expression, and the rich complexity of cellular processes shared by living organisms. Scitable also offers resources for the budding scientist, with advice about effective science communication and career paths.
Providing a wealth of resources for K-12 science educators, Science NetLinks is your guide to meaningful standards-based Internet experiences for students.
his is the third generation of IB Physics website that I have developed for workshop participants and their students. The original, a google website, was inspired by other IB physics teachers (particularly David Hoult) who shared their notes and worksheets on the OCC and elsewhere. As teachers we put a lot of effort into developing resources for our own students, it's a simple thing to share them with the world. Physics teachers are a rare breed often working alone, it's always useful to see what others are doing even if its not the way you'd do it yourself and it is in that spirit that I have put together this website.
Physics teachers have for a long time been applying ICT in their physics teaching. 30 years ago it could have been argued that the bundle of wires and sockets the teacher was trying to get to work in some way made the learning of concepts more difficult but technology has moved on a long way from the days of the VELA and BBC computer.
This web site aims to give an overview of some of the ways of developing students ICT skills in the study of Physics with some tips on how to get started and some ideas for activities. It is not however a comprehensive guide of everything the teacher has to know.
