This is an easy and fun site for elementary grade science students. I was drawn to the "Into The Wild" dairy entries from real scientists, "Dolphins in Depth" and the "Ways of Knowing Trail in the Ituri Forest" interactive games. Although the graphics and game designs are fairly basic, the knowledge reinforcement will be appreciated by teachers. The site provides the players with choices, includes corrections and chances to play again for mastery and more points. With budgets for software non-existant in schools these days, simple web-based Flash games have their place. Visit the Brookfield Zoo site and see for yourself.
