Students at this age really any age, want to see the why and the how. Having hands-on items to create molecules and understanding how the bonds create ionic and convenient bonds, along with how a molecule may look, will help them see the world beyond the black and white they see daily. Other experiments will also show them how reactions occur and how they are not all the same. Hands-on is the future of science, and this is just one great way to help show them. Science has been given a big push in school, and with this push, a need and want for more supplies for teachers and students has also increased. Research says that "Hands-on science encourages the children to DO something – observe, ask questions, touch, smell, experiment. Allowing children to get into science gives them the chance to make discoveries on their own. ... Critical thinking skills are enhanced during such science activities." And with these critical thinking skills, we enhance their communication skills by asking why and what do you think, making them dig for the Higher-Order thinking skills.
