OLogy – American Museum of Natural History

OLogyAmerican Museum of Natural History’s “OLogy” is a good source of information on science and social studies topics, such as biology, archeology, and even mythology. Each area of the site has information, illustrations, and interactive modules for exploring the topic.

“With age-appropriate content in archaeology, astronomy, biodiversity, genetics, marine biology, paleontology, and physical science, OLogy makes science learning rich and engaging. Educators can find suggestions and tips on how to use the OLogy Web site in the Educator’s Guides. They can also use the index provided below to sort by grade, title, type, and topic; while kids can explore the Web site itself at http://www.ology.amnh.org.”

This resource is targeted toward ages 7 to 12. I recommend checking out the Site Map for a quick survey of the site’s activities.
