ToxMystery, the National Library of Medicine interactive learning site for kids, now has a home page in Spanish, http://toxmystery.nlm.nih.gov/espanol.html. The new home page allows users to start the game in Spanish, with Toxie the Cat helping them to explore the site’s “house of hazards.” Gamers can move between Spanish and English by selecting the language tab in the upper right of the page. An illustrated glossary of the words used in ToxMystery has also been added to the Teacher’s Resource page. The glossary is available in Spanish from the “Para maestros” section. The glossary can also be found at http://toxmystery.nlm.nih.gov/tmglosario.pdf (Spanish) and http://toxmystery.nlm.nih.gov/tmglossary_eng.pdf (English).
