REVIEW:
This is a site that science teacher won’t want to miss! It
includes a complete set of materials for both teachers and students,
including printed materials, extensive background and resource information,
and interactive activities. The lessons focus on the biology of
sleep to help students understand the importance of sleep to our
health and to understand the consequences of poor sleep or lack
of sleep. The teacher’s guide includes background and implementation
information, correlation to national standards, black line masters,
additional references and resources, and a glossary. Lessons include
such topics as, what is sleep, sleep disorders, and sleepiness and
driving. Web based student activities include “Houston, We
have a problem” that asks students to examine the data and
determine if the astronauts are sleeping. |
