Classroom Activities
Teachers who want to use hands-on
science activities as part of a classroom presentation or others who want
to use hands-on science activities in different contexts seek the activities
in various ways. If they saw us present the activities in a classroom
or workshop or heard about the activity from someone else, they will probably
seek the activity by name, and an alphabetical listing of activities by
names
will be most useful. If they are instead seeking activities that
fit with certain topics or concepts, an alphabetical listing by concepts
showing appropriate activities will be most useful. Finally, if they
are simply looking for activities that are appropriate for a particular
grade level independent of concepts, a listing of appropriate activities
for each grade level will
be most useful. All three of these listings are provided and are
linked to the activities so that you can find them easily. In addition,
several CHALLENGES are provided for which there are only minimal instructions
and no explanations. You can contact us by email to check your method
of meeting the challenge and for explanation.
