Science News
Below you will find my science news picks for the week. They are taken from a dozen science news sites.
I often include a picture of the scientist who is doing the research on the article featured.
The page is meant to be used once a week by a class Gr. 4 to 8 .
Take 5 to 10 minutes to make a quick check of the Science News.
Some of the articles can be printed out for a science class or to be used with a Guided Reading group.
Some students do short write-ups on the articles and I post them on the page.
