A+ Learning Galleries’ is a place to learn and explore science and nature, from the microscopic to the cosmic. Each Learning Gallery contains a collection of images relating to one science or nature topic with text annotations. Great for students. Lots of information and links to other sites for further exploration.
The Why Files
March 27, 2001 -- From S.V.M., a reader from Madison, WI who is affiliated with the site
Online science magazine for middle schoolers and up. Great site for teachers, students and parents. The Why Files reports on the “Science Behind the News” with a new feature or short story every week, covering the science behind a current news story (Mad Cow disease, population, climate changes…). Easy and fun to read, the site is written with humor but is also fact-checked by scientists, and has lots of fun images that make the visitor want to find out more!
