Cindee Evenson’s Top 10 Web Sites
|
|
Here are 10 web sites that I find useful:
|
|
- http://www.eduplace.com/math/brain/
|
This website has a problem of the week for varied age
levels. Each week there is a
new problem, a hint in case the student can’t get it, and the answer for
the problem from the week before. Also
the site has brain teasers and other math activities.
|
|
- http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history
|
The history of many aspects of mathematics is
included in this website. It
also includes biographies of many mathematicians and defines and explains
the history of famous curves-like circles.
This would be a great site to do with math students reporting on
the history of mathematics.

|
This site has activities for many ages, including
upper levels. Many of the
activities are multidisciplinary, and there are many different things to
do with each lesson.
|
|
- http://www.keloland.com
|
If you want local or national news, weather, sports,
marketwatch, or many other kinds of information, this is a great site!
|
|
- http://www.runnersworld.com
|
This is a site that I go to often, both personally
and as a cross country coach. There
are links for high school runners, women runners, older runners etc…
There is information on nutrition, motivation and all kinds of tips
for runners.
|
|
- http://msn.com
|
A popular spot for news, entertainment, travel etc…
that has something for everyone.
|
|
- http://soundamerica.com
|
I just learned about this site during TTL, and I
assume I will use it often for sound clips from movies, T.V. , cartoons
etc.
|
|
- http://nyelabs.kcts.org
|
A great spot for anyone that teaches science!
Bill Nye, the Science Guy has a daily demonstration that lists all
materials needed, instructions, and what the experiment teaches.
Also, he answers questions and lists all his shows.
This site makes science fun.

I learned about this website at TTL. It is a good
place to download all kinds of graphics.
|
|
- http://kicksports.com/
|
This site has good information for coaching.
It includes everything from sports medicine to calendars that
feature running events. They
also allow you to subscribe to a list where you get periodic e-mails.
