Energy Skate Park

 

If you teach STEM this website is gold.  Here is a link to a simulation for skate board park that you can use for Conservation of Energy.  Lots of other stuff but here is the link for the skate board park.

If you used an idea from this website then please buy Mr H a gatorade :)  Thank you

Phet for Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Math Simulations

 

I have previously posted about this great site that I know at least one of the teachers at my school uses.  According to their website, "Founded in 2002 by Nobel Laureate Carl Wieman, the PhET Interactive Simulations project at the University of Colorado Boulder creates free interactive math and science simulations. PhET sims are based on extensive education research and engage students through an intuitive, game-like environment where students learn through exploration and discovery."  If you have never tried their site, give it a go by clicking here,  hopefully after checking out my amazon.ca ads below.   If you are Canadian and making any amazon.ca purchase please click on my links below first as I will get a small commission on anything you buy even if it is something else.   Thanks.  This post may contain affiliate links that earns me  a commission at no extra cost to you.  Buy your Christmas gifts soon.

I have previously blogged about Phet in the past.  To see the posts click here.  I thought that with the school year starting off virtually in many places this might be a great site for you to look at if you have not before.   To see the website click here.

PhET - Interactive Science and Math Simulator

From the University of Colorado at Boulder, PhET is an interactive science simulator.  It animates what is invisible to the human eye and is interactive using sliders, click and drag, and radio buttons.  Check it out by clicking here.
