It can be hard to find good resources for classroom activities.  We hope that this page will save you time when you are lesson planning.  All of the sites here are linked to free resources.  

Arizona State University "Ask a Biologist"
This is a treasure trove of links and activities for a wide variety of biological topics from individual organisms to entire biomes.  There are physical and virtual resources that are appropriate for all ages.  The site is very expansive because each page has links to more material, but the site is very well organized and easy to navigate.  You will find everything from coloring pages to virtual dissections!  Take a look at these engaging resources!

TeachEngineering.org 
This site, by the University of Colorado at Boulder, is geared toward promoting engineering in the classroom through science and math instruction.  Each lesson has a section which explains the link to engineering.  There are thousands of high quality lessons which can be easily searched by topic and refined by grade level and type of material.  The site has materials for grades K-12.  All come with full lesson plans and downloadable material.

World Wildlife Fund Teaching Resources
This site has "Teacher Toolkits" for teaching a variety of wildlife and conservation topics. The Toolkits offer lessons that address  the four core subjects as well as art and physical education.  Teachers can utilize the full unit or choose individual lessons.  Most resources are made for students in grades 3-5, but there are materials that are appropriate for K-12.  

Earthlearningidea.com
This site focuses on Earth Science topics such as rocks, minerals, soils, erosion, rock cycle, and the atmosphere.  Each topic page has a variety of lesson plans available to download.  The site is based in the United Kingdom, so teachers may encounter some differences in terminology. 

Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Wildlife Educational Resources
If you are looking for information that is specific to Ohio wildlife, you should start here.  Links to information about Ohio wildlife, invasive species, endangered species, pollinators and citizen science can be found here. This site has links to some lessons, but most links lead to information about living things that you find in Ohio.
