In order for children to perform science experiments, they need basic materials and tools to apply the scientific method using their own investigations based on their own questions. Because we will not be in the classroom until later this year, as teachers we are learning very quickly how to implement high leverage and meaningful science learning. Engagement is even more crucial when teaching online, and allowing students to create their own questions to pursue, is optimum. These science kits full of basic supplies are broad enough to encourage open-ended curiosity, which is conducive for home learning. Fifth-grade science standards are varied and dense and providing these materials will support a wide range of those standards. More importantly, building an understanding of the scientific process is crucial to any subsequent science standard taught. The materials included in the kits support the facilitation of this scientific process, alongside good instruction and encouragement for inquiry.
