Hands-on Science Resources for Home and School

The award-winning, non-profit Science Buddies empowers K-12 students, parents, and teachers to quickly and easily find free project ideas and help in all areas of science from physics to food science and music to microbiology. Whether your goal is to find a fun science activity for your kids or win the international science fair, sciencebuddies.org puts comprehensive, scientist-authored tools, tips, and techniques at your fingertips.

This artifact demonstrates the development of creativity in my classroom because it required all students to choose an area that interested them and investigate it further by creating their own experiment, using an idea and extending on it from the internet, or researching a topic. Students could choose whatever topic they wanted to. The requirements included following proper scientific methods when designing an experiment or studying a topic. Thus, this did not fall into a particular outcome, rather it was extra practice in developing the scientific method, which is focused on in every Unit of study.

The Science First Peoples 5-9 Teacher Resource Guide provides educators with resources to support increased integration of the rich body of First Peoples knowledge and perspectives into classrooms and schools. Developed in British Columbia.

The resource guide includes 8 engaging multi-grade thematic units:
Unit 1 – Traditional Ecological Knowledge
Unit 2 – Plants and Connection to Place
Unit 3 – Power from the Land
Unit 4 – Bear and Body Systems
Unit 5 – Climate Change
Unit 6 – Shaking and Flooding
Unit 7 – Interconnectedness of the Spheres
Unit 8 – Ocean Connections

Each unit contains a brief intro, essential questions, enduring understandings, curriculum connections, cross-curricular links, suggested activities, resources, assessment activities, and suggested additional resources.

The Science First Peoples Teacher Resource Guides for Grades 5-9 (2016) and Science First Peoples Teacher Resource Guide Secondary (2019) were developed by the First Nations Education Steering Committee and First Nations Schools Association.

These guides support educators integrating the rich body of First Peoples knowledge and perspectives into Science courses and other curricular areas.

This resource includes eLearning modules, teacher support materials, diagrams, interactive science experiments and more.This resource is primarily designed for high school students but there is some content appropriate for Grade 6 - Grade 8 students.

Open Educational Resources (OER) for K-12 Science including - lessons, videos, simulations, professional learning and on-demand teacher support.

*more is being developed so keep checking for new materials*
*CHECK GRADES OTHER THAN WHAT YOU TEACH TO FIND ADDITIONAL SK LESSON TOPICS*

"We’ve made our curriculum free for all educators because high quality instructional materials and professional learning can bridge the opportunity gap for all students. The units underwent a rigorous 18-month development process with teacher and student voices across the country informing the selection of the phenomena and each unit’s storyline. Using our curriculum, teachers have seen their students strengthen their ability to solve problems, become more curious about the world around them, and be excited to discover the wonders of science in their classrooms."

Check out these 19 categories of great science podcasts that you can listen to with kids. Many of the categories have a number of podcasts within. Topics include oceans, dinosaurs, light, sound, space, senses, animals , plants and much, much more!

Did you know that there’s a listening app with ONLY content for kids?! It’s called Kids Listen, and it features a playlist curated especially for educational shows! Check it out at https://app.kidslisten.org, or as an Apple or Google Play app. What a great way to let your kids discover what they love.

This site offers take-home science projects that can be completed with or without Internet access, all free of charge.
