Science News for Students

The website contains articles and videos of the latest, and archived, science news written for students. Each article provides the facts behind the story, links to locate further information, and a readability score. Some articles have a question page to prompt students think more deeply about the topic. The site has a simple layout, colourful images, videos, and easy-to-use drop-down menus. A teacher page includes teacher-related articles and videos about teaching science and how to inspire students to learn about science. Suitable for grades 6-12, the site can be used to update information in textbooks and as a starting point for student-directed research projects.
