Best Science Games for Students
Teaching science often involves the use of models -- everything from microscopic chemical structures to population dynamics. Playing games can help make these models less abstract for students. From physics puzzlers to genetic simulations, you'll find terrific game-based learning experiences on this list. Whether students are taking command of a cell or sending a rocket into orbit, these games encourage kids to observe the world around them. And many of these great picks come with extension activities and experiments within.
