building an educational resource list

[Kelly Campbell]

Hi! I’m collecting a broad array of fun, educational resources after receiving several similar resource requests (http://educatorlabs.org/request-a-resource/) from educators across the nation. The common theme is a desire for fun, hands-on lessons to entertain and educate their students. So, I set off on a fun adventure to collect as many as possible.

I have several I want to share with you, in hopes you’ll share them with others on your site (maybe this page: http://nsa.kpu-m.ac.jp/gijutu/tex/linux/link.html?), but before I do, I wondered whether you had any you could recommend (other than those you’ve listed)? If not, no problem!

Here is the list so far - I hope you enjoy them as much as I have and that you’ll share them with your other visitors:
