Students would probably rather be spending free time in the lab playing pinball or visiting Addicting Games.com, however there are are just too many online learning opportunities to let even one moment pass! 

Therefore, following are a few websites that that may be entertaining, AND educational. Some are games, some are puzzles, but all are worthwhile sites to visit should you have a little spare time on the computer.  And remember, if it's okay with your parents, you can always play pinball or visit Addicting Games at home. Or, perhaps you'll even find something you like here and visit the site at home.

General:

Fun Brain - #1 Internet site for students. Many educational games to play for all ages - even adults!

Multi-Media:

How Stuff Works - An incredible site that explains how things work, everything from where comets come from, how muscles work to how investigators use DNA for evidence.

Brain Pop - Engaging short mini movies on the computer. Featured topics are science, health and technology.

Word Games:

Yahoo Text Twist - Try this timed word scramble from Yahoo Games. 

Puzzles:

JigZone.com - JigZone.com is the home of the amazing on-line puzzle site. This is a great site enjoyed by all ages but watch out - there are many annoying pop-up menus!

Utah State Games:

MasterMind

Tangrams 

Ladybug Maze

Towers of Hanoi

Number Patterns

Number Puzzles

Peg Puzzle

our on-line exploration, discovery and learning. 
In Christ's name we pray.
