STEM Resources for Teachers and Students
http://www.thinkfinity.org/stem
The Verizon Foundation’s Thinkfinity website has a very large section of STEM resources for students and teachers. Near the bottom of the homepage visitors will find “Lesson Plans”, “Podcasts”, and “Resources and Tools”. In addition, there is a community forum where members discuss their thoughts on some of the resources from the website they have found useful, or how they have modified them to suit their classroom situation. Visitors to the site can easily register for free to join the community. The “At Home and Afterschool” tab near the top of the page has a “games and tools” section that includes activities, videos, and collections, as well as other types of resources. The literacy section of the “Afterschool” area has many resources for families and games for early literacy. Visitors can also use the “Professional Development” tab to find information on how to utilize the many Thinkfinity resources.
