Making Predictions: Tootsie Pop Experiment "How Many Licks...?"

(0)
This is a great experiment (and just in time for HALLOWEEN) to do with younger students that is engaging, fun, and utilizes the Scientific Method with math. Simply put, the students will make a prediction about how many licks it will take them to reach the chocolate center of the Tootsie Pop, and then analyze their answers with their peers. It's a great starter experiment to the Scientific Method, that introduces about making predictions, documenting our work throughout the experiment, comparing answers to predictions, and looking at additional factors that could have affected the outcome. It also incorporates different types of math (methods of counting) to document the licks. This allows you to see how each individual child attends to counting, especially up to larger numbers. **Please note, if a child cannot finish their lollipop or cannot reach the chocolate center, have them stop and record their licks as is.** Included in this pack are: A front and back recording sheet for the experiment (print 1 per student) A set of instruction cards that depict the steps of the experiment Visual aids for certain steps in the experiment for lower ability students. Be adventurous and allow students to work on this as a science or math center! Please make sure to rate and leave feedback!!!

First and foremost, I want to be clear that this product was inspired by the Disney character, I do not own this character, but am merely inspired by him to create this hands on STEM activity. Also note that these are prototypes of Robots, and will NOT required any circuitry or working robotic pieces. This is a great hands on unit for K-2 students that is aligned with ELA & Math CCSS, and Next Generation Science Standards for Engineering & Design. Students will watch Big Hero 6, or discuss the character Baymax, and be challenged to use specific materials to build a their own robot. ***Please note additional materials are needed for this activity*** Assorted plastic lids, assorted fabrics, coffee cans, plastic cups, straws, pipe cleaners, masking tape, Google eyes, buttons, tin foil, cardboard, string. This packet includes: Cover Page Introduction and Objective Page 3 pages of ELA, Math and Next Generation Science Standards for K-2 Lesson Procedure Baymax poster Building Robots Differentiated Self Assessment Building Robots Differentiated Math Extension Building Robots Design page Building Robots Explanations Building Robots Baymax Rulers Building Robots with Baymax Banner for classroom display Please make sure to rate and leave feedback!
