Recommended sites for Maths, Science, MFL and Geography

Sorry for my recent lack of posts but here I hope get back up to date. ;)

Maths

Pearson active learn is a great resource for students to use outside of school. It means that students can access their textbooks, to get help with homework or to work on things they are struggling with. It is also useful for stretching yourself and having a go for those A* questions you didn't have time for.
It currently only has GCSE textbooks on there, so is very useful for years 10/11 but less so for younger years; although if you think you are ready for it go ahead!

Science

If you are interested in science or technology pick up a copy of focus magazine (available in the library). It features lots of interesting articles and is great if you want to know more. This month is about memory; how big is our brain's capacity?, Will our brain become full?, Can we implant false memories?

MFL

wordreference.com is a great website for translating between many languages, it provides an online dictionary so unlike Google translate it will show you all of the translations of a word and associated phrases, this means you will get a more natural and more correct translation. Hopefully you will find it useful!

Geography

The United States Geological Survey (USGS) is a great website to track natural disasters, earthquakes or other world events. It is great for extending your background knowledge and it may surprise you how many earthquakes are happening around the world every day, some even under your feet!
