Have you heard of Mystery Science?

Posted by Lori Blantz on Jan 13, 2020 7:00:00 AM

Here is an engaging and enriching science resource for teachers, Mystery Science. It looks great and they’re offering a free subscription to a few thousand teachers.

You should sign up quickly, they have less than 700 free spots remaining (it normally costs US $99 per year). Here is the Invitation Link

The site is gear to elementary, but some of the ideas can be stretched to secondary or at least used as an exploration activity. There are full lessons and mini lessons.

Topics: science

Spotlight: 

My next items to win are brought to you from Educational Insights and focus on enhancing students' problem-solving and critical thinking skills. Both prizes are for ages 8 to adult. Kanoodle is great for visual learners. With this educational tool, challenge your students' brains to 200 logical thinking puzzles from basic to deviously difficult. SUPER SLEUTH is a detective-themed vocabulary game with 180+ mysteries to solve. Practice synonyms, antonyms, homophones, and multiple-meaning words as students draw cue cards and use the magnifying glass answer decoder.   Again both tools are perfect for enhancing problem-solving, critical thinking, and strategic thinking skills. To enter the contest you need to write a short 100 word or less essay explaining how you could use these tools in the classroom. Essays are due to Lori Blantz by February 3rd. Essays will be read and voted on by our ESCES Supervisors on February 5th. Winners will be notified by February 6th. Good Luck!  Please have the essays sent to lori_blantz@iu13.org 👍
