We are starting to build our classroom science lab! I would love to provide a more hands-on experience for my students as we learn about science in the world around us. With our own materials, we can have them out and available to be used anytime the students have free time, they can be used as motivation, we can do more group projects, more experiments, and have more fun! I plan to use these items to start building a lab where the students will use what they are learning throughout the year, not just for the unit, or until the test. We need to continue learning, experiencing, questioning and discovering!
