Here are some good websites that I have found that I need to put somewhere that wont get lost in amongst a whole heap of other links. So here they are!

Over the past few months my husband and Mr7 have been playing the demo of a game called World of Goo. They have been having a ball with it! So I decided to have a look at the game and watch them have a play and the game looks greats!! The game consists of 5 chapters and the demo consists of the first chapter of the game. (which is a good sized demo I reckon!) The full game costs $20US which is pretty good value depending on the state of the world economy!

The game is very heavily based on physics and from what I could see the object was to solve puzzles using balls of goo and the Laws of Physics. The level the my husband and son were playing involved making a goo bridge to cross between two cliffs. How they built the bridge, if it had the right foundations, how they anchored it to the cliff and the amount of goo used all contributed to their success in completing the puzzle. Mr7 was totally engaged in this game and I could see his bridge building skill improving as he went along, he was making much more informed choices in where to place the goo for the bridge to stay up the more he played the game.

This would be excellent for school use! Obviously in Physics classes, Design Technology or Science, but also if you were entering your students into a bridge building competition which tend to roll around once or twice a year get them on this game first to get some conceptual idea first! The demo download should be enough for a class situation but the full game would be great for a lunchtime competition or exploring some more concepts fully. I think it would be appropriate for primary up to year 10 age levels.
