New e-Resources… K-12

The California library has provided us (and thereby you) with access to 3 Gale student databases. 
 
Gale in Context--Environmental Studies (high school)
Environmental Studies is updated daily with news, reference materials, academic journals, videos, and more. This resource offers nearly 400 topic, state, and province resources across the science, social studies, and humanities curriculum, including Water Privatization, Ecotourism, Air Pollution, Green Economy, and more.

Gale Interactive: Science (high school)
While supporting high school curricula and university coursework, Gale Interactive: Science helps students better visualize and understand concepts in biology, chemistry, earth, and space science. Students and instructors can manipulate and explore 3D models that are paired with reference and periodical content for further understanding.

National Geographic Kids (elementary and middle school)
National Geographic Kids includes the complete run of the magazine from 2009 to the present, as well as books, videos, and images. High-quality informational texts are available for primary, upper elementary, and middle school English Language Arts, social studies, and science classrooms. Best for children aged 6-14.  

These can all be found via the library's Research & Homework page in their respective alphabetical positions and accessed from any computer with your library card.
