Science Playwiths
http://members.ozemail.com.au/~macinnis/scifun/index.htm
GRADE LEVEL: K-12

CONTENT:
This site is filled with activities and experiments to add a little excitement to your science study.
AESTHETICS:
This bare-bones site is primarily text and uses color for interest.
ORGANIZATION:
Playwiths are organized by topic and are indexed on the left side of the main page. Individual pages or topics have a left-side index of activities. Users will need to use the back button to return to the home page.
REVIEW:
Just as the name implies, Science Playwiths offers activities and experiments using "everyday things to pose interesting questions" on a variety of topics. Teachers, students, and home schooling parents will find ideas for learning about everything from bubbles to electricity to sound. Each activity includes an explanation of the science behind the experiment. Science Project Ideas provides extensive science fair project ideas and tips on planning the project, creating a logbook, finding information, and much more.
