My Project

My students can use the scientific method to explore various science projects. The interactive notebook activity will allow them to record their science experiments. The kits will allow them to recreate a situation to explore in science. The snacks will allow my students to explore popular and the most popular-tasting snacks amongst their peers.

My students can use the scientific method to explore various science projects.

Science will become very interesting to them, which will help engage them in the lessons. I love that they can have science talks because I love to hear their thoughts on science. My students will see science all around them.
