Ok, as promised here is a list of good places to find good science articles. Remember that they need to be of a reasonable length (the short science news blurbs don't qualify) and that you need to print me a copy or supply me with the link. I've given some examples of what I think good articles look like for each site, feel free to use those or any others that you are interested in. If you aren't sure if the article is a good one either post it here in the comments (probably best over the weekend b/c I don't usually check my school email on Saturday or Sunday) or email me the link and I'll take a look. If you find one that you like but you think is too short check to see if there are any refrence links -chances are that one of those articles will be just right. Don't be afraid of articles with big unfamiliar words in them you can always look them up or ask me. So quit sitting there and go out there and do some science!

I really enjoyed these articles! I'm homeschooled and I don't get out much, and lately I've been really interested in science, mainly Biology. So thanks for posting these articles! Now I have something school related to do so my parents won't get mad for my being on my laptop... :P
