Sometimes you hear of a new website and you think to yourself
"Why didn't I think of that?!" That's what I thought when I heard
about Science on The
Simpsons.
Created by Mr Burns (yes, really) at Los Gatos High School,
Science on The Simpsons is a collection of clips from The Simpsons
which can be used to support science lessons on a surprisingly
diverse range of topics. The clips are great to use as a starter,
plenary or quick recap. Topics include:
Second
Law of Thermodynamics
Frictionless
Floor
Evolution

Science on The Simpsons is a work in progress. If you have any
clip suggestions for Science on The Simpsons, email Dan Burns - dburns@lgsuhsd.org - with a short
