Hi, I'm Sulan Dun, a former teacher and web developer, and I've 
made some free online educational games at FunBasedLearning.com which 
you might find interesting.  They are various fun educational Algebra 
and Chemistry games that I wish I had available when I was a teacher.  
Please have a look, and if you find them useful, please feel free 
to dsicuss and/or link them on http://www.schoolforge.net or the mailing 
discussion list or mention them anywhere else you think they may be of 
value.

Here are the free online games available at http://FunBasedLearning.com
