I learned about the benefits of building race cars in the classroom as a way to teach mathematics and science. It is particularly beneficial and relevant to the 3rd grade standards. It was a great way to incorporate the Scientific Method, as well.
- Ask a question.
- Do Background Research
- Construct a Hypothesis
- Test your Hypothesis by doing an experiment
- Analyze your data and draw a conclusion
- Communicate your results
I also learned about the www.nbclearn.com website. It has such a plethora of resources about relating everyday items to chemistry concepts. My group developed a glogster about the History and Chemistry of Chocolate.
Yuuuummm,
