Material kits, lab-mats, and a wide variety of black-line masters provide opportunities for inquiry every day. 6-8 Inquiry - Interactive Science features a variety of hands-on and minds-on inquiry options to keep all your students engaged. Look for the Lab Zone triangle, which indicates it’s time for hands-on inquiry in the Teacher’s Lab Resource. Inquiry Resources include: Material Kits; STEM Activity Handbook; Scenario-Based Investigations; Inquiry Skills Activities; Chapter Activities and Projects; and Virtual Labs. MyScienceOnline.com for students and teachers Student Access - Deliver science lessons to your students where they live in the digital world at MyScienceOnline.com. This "go-to" site for unique online-only activities captures students' attention, keeps them engaged, and makes science relevant. Whether in the class, at home, or on the go, your students can support and extend their learning in a medium they know and enjoy. Engaging Technology includes: My Reading Web; Untamed Science Videos; My Science Coach; Interactive Art; and Planet Diary. Teacher Access - MyScienceOnline.com is the “one-stop-shop” for all your planning, teaching, and assessment needs. This easy-to-manage interface offers every thing you need to manage your class, track progress, customize to your own teaching style, and most of all—reach and teach your students in new and exciting ways. Online Classroom Management includes: Access your eTeacher’s Edition anytime; set up your class online; assign homework online; customize your labs and resources with editable documents, and generate tests track student progress.
