Wow! I'm impressed with these resources.
To follow up on my suggestion, here's the website where you can learn more
about the magnetic models.

Here are my favorite websites to use with students. My high school and
middle school students like the discover magazine podcasts the best.  Cindy

> Hi. I teach biology to the V.I. Youtube and hulu do have interesting
videos for biology. For descriptive videos that are exciting, you can go to
NOVA and buy their videos. There is one that will be very exciting for your
daughter. It is about the visually impaired. Dr. Ramachandran is the doctor
who tells the story and has guests. There are three movies on one DVD. One
is about a V. I. boy who plays two pianos at once. Another is about a boy
who does echo location and is visually impaired. I think, maybe three people
are capable of echo location in all the world. Go also to Discovery School
and get a computer DVD on Cells. They are fun to watch. They have four ten
minute videos and a whole lesson with it. For chemistry, I use songs and
dances actually. Bizarre but true. It is the Holy Mol-EE set that you can
buy. It is pricey but great. Has all the lessons on every topic in
Chemistry, worksheets, songs, and sign language and dances to go with each
one too.
