Kidshealth.org: I found this site early in my MAT Student Teaching. This site contains articles on a variety of physiology and health related topics for kids, teens and parents. Each age group has topics written to be read by that age group, new words defined and pronounced. Often these articles would be linked to other relevant stories, especially for diseases or disorders; one article would talk factually about the disorder and another would tell a young persons experience will having to deal with it. This would put a face on that disorder.
ScienceDaily.com: My host teacher showed me this site. This site contains a multitude of new science and research news from a variety of sources. This site further topic pages that include: health & medicine, mind & brain, plants & animals, earth & climate, space & time, matter & energy, computers & math, fossils & ruins.
For teachers this a great site to check daily to keep up on what is happen in the science community at large. For students, it is a tremendous resource for research and project articles.
National Science Teachers Association This is a must for the Science Teacher, full of resources, leads and just plain good ideas for the professional science teacher. You can review the first pages, but to delve further into this site you must be a paid member. I have often used this site for ideas for upcoming lesson plans.
