The idea for Flocabulary first came to co-founder Blake Harrison in high school. A good student who still struggled to memorize facts for tests, he wondered why it was so easy to remember lines to his favorite rap songs but so difficult to memorize the definitions of new vocabulary words. Blake realized that if a rapper released an album that defined SAT vocab words, students would have a fun and effective way to prepare for the SAT.

SciShow Kids explores all those curious topics that make us ask "why?" Every Tuesday and Thursday, Jessi and her robot rat Squeaks answer your questions and explain fun, complex science concepts for young, curious minds.

Each day, we pose an intriguing question—the Wonder of the Day®—and explore it in a variety of ways.

This is an excellent resource to have on hand for all three of your middle school science years.

This gives an overview of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). Get more info at the NGSS for Parents website.
