Useful websites for schoolchildren

The nut of knowledge, as you know, is hard. It is not as easy for students and students to return to school after the summer holidays as they would like. Kilograms of outdated knowledge completely discourage the natural interest in learning. How do I get him back?

Editorial "Site" I am sure that modern education should be not only useful, but also interesting. Therefore, we have prepared for readers a selection of 10 fantastically interesting sites that will help break the nut of knowledge and give inquiring minds a lot of interesting discoveries.

School sites

1. astronomy
   A unique interactive model will help to estimate the size of most familiar objects in the Universe, from atoms to galaxies! When clicking on the object, additional information is displayed. To change the scale of the considered element of the Universe, you need to use a slider or spin the mouse wheel.
   
   
   
   
   Pielspace Solar System
   
   This site will allow you to imagine the distances between objects in the solar system. 1 pixel of the screen will be taken for 3474 km - this is the diameter of the moon. If you move about 17,000 points, you will see Mercury.
   
   The program also allows you to measure distance in astronomical units, kilometers, Earth diameters and the like. Test yourself and get to the limit of our solar system.
   
   
   
   
   
2. History
   Few of us really know history well. The reason is that we tend to study a particular country and look at everything that happened there at different times.
   
   This method of teaching does not provide an understanding of the relationships between historical events. Therefore, the so-called horizontal method of studying history is becoming increasingly widespread.
   
   A great example of how visual and interesting a “horizontal story” can be is the Map of Contemporaries project. Its developer, Yuri Bogdanov, has done a great job of creating an interactive timeline that presents data on almost 10,000 great historical figures.
   
   Did you know that Buddha and Pythagoras were contemporaries and that Rembrandt could have painted a portrait of Stepan Razin? If not, follow the link immediately!
   
   
   
   
   Interactive World History Atlas
   
   This service is at the intersection of history and geography. It allows you to understand the geopolitical situation of any historical period.
   
   Interactive map of the world It allows you to see where the borders of certain countries passed in a particular year. Almost the entire human history is covered - from the fourth millennium BC to the present.
   
   
   
   
3. Geography
   Windyty.com Bright weather map It provides interactive visualization of wind, temperature, pressure, precipitation and sea currents in real time across the globe. You can see how storms are born in the Atlantic Ocean, or you can see the Gulf Stream.
   
   
   
   
   Earth.nullschool.net
   
   This service will assess the level of pollution by dust and various chemical compounds of the atmosphere and oceans.

   Journey to the centre of earth
   
   What would happen if you drilled a well to the center of the Earth? Interactive service from the BBC will allow you to do this, and along the way will show many hidden at incredible depths of interest: tombs and catacombs, deepest caves and mines.
   
   The creators filled the service with a lot of interesting information. Who would have thought that the deepest hotel on earth is located at a depth of 155 meters in the bowels of an abandoned silver mine, and the deepest half marathon was held at a depth of 212 meters in a Polish salt mine.
   
   In parallel, you can plunge into the ocean and “see” sunken ships, deep-sea fish and the Mariana Trench. Interestingly, the deepest mine on Earth (Tau Tona, South Africa – 5000 meters) is much deeper than the wreckage of the Titanic (north Atlantic Ocean – 3750 meters).
   
   
   
   
   
4. chemistry
   Periodic Videos TEDed has created an interactive table of chemical elements. Clicking on any cell of the table automatically opens a video in which a strange professor from the University of Nottingham for 2-3 minutes in understandable language will talk about the basic chemical properties of the selected element and its application in everyday life.
   
   
   
   
   
5. Mathematics
   Desmos This online service allows you to create graphs using the function formula. The function itself fits into the left column, and the graph is automatically built on the right side.
   
   The service will be useful for those who need to quickly and easily build a function schedule, for whom the construction of function graphs causes difficulties, or for those who need to check the correctness of graphing at the lowest cost.
   
   
   
   
   
6. Video lessons on the school curriculum
   Interneturok is an excellent resource that presents lessons on the school curriculum in videos, notes, tests and simulators. But most of all, it is video lessons that deserve praise, during which teachers very clearly, concisely and clearly explain what you missed in school. Adults will also be useful to improve knowledge in a particular area.
