web sites active today. The School House presents the Too Cool
School House Educational Site of the Week as carefully selected by
our resident educator, Grace Smith. Check it out, and happy
learning!

SpaceKids is a comprehensive science site offering facts, movies, photos,
homework help, and games. Students can test their space knowledge, ask questions
of experts, and keep up-to-date with space news.
The site also features previews of two complete teaching modules, "Can You Ever See Venus at Midnight?" and
"What Makes a Volcano Erupt?" Each module contains hands-on experiments, critical thinking
activities, and teaching suggestions. More modules are expected when the site fully launches
later this month.
Rating: Fine resources for space information and related activities.
