Interested in using Dragons in Whyville?

Want to get involved? Sign up today!

If you would like to use free, Dragon genetics games with your middle school students (grades 5-8), please complete the form below. Whyville is a virtual world where millions of kids aged 8-15 are engaged in learning about science, investigating virtual careers and creating their own content. Now, Whyvillians can explore the world of genetics by breeding dragons with the traits needed to find treasures throughout Whyville.

We are interested in how you can use this tool in your classroom as part of your genetics unit. If you run Dragons with your class (at least 15 students), administer short pre- and post-tests, and complete a teacher feedback survey, you will receive a $20 gift certificate to Amazon.com. (Unfortunately, this offer is only available to teachers within the United States.)
