Thing 31: Gizmos

I had some time recently to play around with Gizmos, which is basically a interactive leaning tool for students to go above and beyond their typical lessons.  Gizmos offer interactive tutorials for an wide assortment of topics from K-12 in Math and Science.  When I was working with Gizmos I simplified Trigonometric functions in an interactive proof simulation, I did a digestion puzzle connecting the organs of digestion, and I found out how much I would weigh on the moon.  All of these topics can and are relevant to curriculum taught in our math and science classrooms and should be utilized by math and science teachers.  Below are a few of the Gizmos that I added to "My Class," which I called "36 Things."
