The Lawrence Hall of Science kids site is just amazing! There are projects, quizzes, research information, photos, and games on many science topics such as animals, oil spills, and plants, to name a few. The arcade currently has 14 games, and many of them work great on the SMART Board. Check it out!

Another fabulous site for PreK-2nd grade and children with special needs! HelpKidzLearn.com offers games, stories, creative and informational activities, and all work well on the SMART Board.  Below is a preview of the TrainTracker activity and the Fossil Hunter game, just a few of the MANY activities this site has to offer. Visit the site to see more, or you can follow them on Twitter @helpkidzlearn to get updates when new activities are added.

The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis Dinosphere is a wonderful website to learn about dinosaurs. It includes a virtual tour and a wonderful Teacher’s section with activities and webquests.
