Buggy about Bugs!

Today I found an awesome science website for students. The website is designed for elementary students but I think middle school students would like this site also. I like that the website is colorful, the font is large, and there is a variety of information. Because my students can't read the information, I will read while the students follow along with the pictures. The site also includes step by step instructions on a lesson and videos are embedded. This is awesome! As a class we can watch the video, complete an experiment, and later discuss our results.

I appreciate science websites, because as a kid I disliked science. So anytime I find a resource which will make learning science fun, I will give it a try. I still struggle with science but websites such as Lawrence Hall of Science are helping me get the hang of it. This site is beneficial to teachers because it is free and can be access by students in and outside of school. If you get a minute, give it a try.
