5.) http://www.howard.k12.md.us/science/resources/BiologyResources/index.html Secondary Biology: Resource sit for the biology teacher that covers many topics that all secondary science students will need to know.
This site is from the University of California at San Diego. It has a great animation of the greenhouse effect- it could potentially be a good tool for illustrating an often misunderstood concept.
This site is the student site from the seventh edition of Biology. It has some great animations of biological concepts, such as mitosis and cytokinesis.
http://www.freezeray.com/biology.htm
If you can navigate through the junk, this website has some nice visual animations of articulations for human anatomy and physiology.
This is a collection of physics applets that allow you to change variables to observe the effects in subjects such as motion, buoyancy, E&M, waves, and thermodynamics.
These are a collection of animations that illustrate the vectors of motion (such as velocities, force, etc) in a lot of “real life” scenarios, such as flying an airplane, merry-go-rounds, and planets. Even gets into astronomy topics such as precession, which can be difficult for students to visualize.

This company offers “Gizmos” which are applets that illustrate math and science concepts that are targeted towards age-groups from 3rd to 12th grade. You can browse them and use 5 minute trials, but once you get connected to a school system, this may be something worth investing in (especially if they will pay for it!).

This is a consolidated list of useful resources from other sites organized into categories of General Collections, Anatomy & Physiology I, Anatomy & Physiology II, Biology, Animals, Plants, Ecology, Microbiology, Astronomy, Geology, and Physics. I haven’t looked through all of the resources here, but I found a couple useful ones that I have used in the past in the ranks, so it would be worth exploring your content area here.
