This is a collection of one page handouts on a variety of accommodation tools that can be used with students. These supporting documents were created at The Sun West Distance Learning Centre (DLC), but are intended for use by all teachers.
Biology Simulations helps students to learn about biology and practice data analysis skills. These simulations allow students to experiment with concepts that may take too much time or too many resources to complete in a traditional science lab setting.
Simulations and virtual labs for biology topics including evolution, ecology, and cellular energetics. All materials are free
The CLS provides educational resources for middle and senior years teachers across Canada that relate to curriculum. Resources in the following topics have been developed: Light and Optics; Science and Society; Physical Sciences; Earth Sciences; Health Sciences; Chemistry; Physics; Biology.
Free online physics, chemistry, biology, earth science and math simulations.
PhET Sims are now available in HTML5 as well!
Simulations can be sorted by subject area or grade. This is very helpful.
PhET is a collection of interactive computer simulations for teaching and learning physics, chemistry, math, and other sciences.
Simulations can be used directly on the site or downloaded and used that way.
The simulations are animated, interactive, and game-like environments where students learn through exploration. They emphasize the connections between real-life and the underlying science. These great activities help students visualize abstract concepts!
Over 150 simulations, ready to use and ready to bring concepts to life for your students in Math & Science!
cK-12 Exploration Series offers Physics and Chemistry simulations to support visualization of abstract concepts. Teachers would need to create an account.
This site offers a collection of hundreds of free K-12 STEM resources, from standalone models and simulations to short activities and week long sequences of curriculum materials. Filter by type of subject, activity type and grade. Searchable subjects include: physics and chemistry, life science, engineering, earth and space, and math.
