Science Experiments for the Teacher Who Doesn't Like Teaching Science

(1)
Note this product is part of a "Bundled For Savings" pack. Be sure to check out Bundled for Savings: Science Experiments for the Teacher Who Doesn't Like Teaching Science to purchase all FOUR sets of this product at a substantial savings! Yes, that's me...an elementary teacher who is not fond of teaching science. I know there are many of you out there, because I hear it from my colleagues all the time. I can't tell you how many science experiments I've had kids do that were total and complete flops over the years. Oh...and if you LOVE teaching science...you will find these experiments useful too! Finally, after 24 years of teaching, I have found tried and true experiments that the kids love, are easy to do, and actually work! This packet contains 5 easy investigations. The materials needed are easy to come by and inexpensive. I did not come up with these experiments myself, nor do I claim to. I have just compiled them onto easy to use sheets for students. Each experiment is described in detail on the front side and the backside provides students with space to record their observations. In addition, I have included an easy explanation of each experiment. The experiments include: Climbing Colors - A chromatology experiment. Materials needed include a washable colored marker, coffee filter, small plastic cup, water, measuring cup, scissors, and a ruler. Magic Milk - A color reaction experiment. Materials needed include whole milk, dinner plate, food coloring, Dawn dish detergent, and cotton swabs. Muscle Sand - A forces experiment. Materials needed include a paper towel cardboard tube, sand, tissue paper, rubber band, and a wooden dowel (12 inches long). Up, Up & Away - A chemical reaction experiment. Materials needed include a small uninflated balloon, small funnel, empty plastic water bottle, baking soda, vinegar, measuring cup (1/2 cup), and a measuring spoon (tablespoon) Hip Clip - A surface tension experiment. Materials needed include 2 clean, dry medium-size paper clips, 2” by 3” piece of tissue paper, bowl, water, and a pencil with an eraser.

Scientific Method Steps Foldable

Scientific Method Steps Foldable

(1)
This foldable breaks the Scientific Method down to 5 steps: Observe & Ask Questions, Form a Hypothesis, Plan an Experiment, Conduct an Experiment, Draw Conclusions & Communicate Results. This foldable will fit perfectly in a science journal. Just be sure to trim on the grey line before distributing to students. This makes for a much nicer fit. This foldable can be used as a stand alone resource as well. The teacher has several options with this foldable: Make copies of the blank template and parts page and allow your students to assemble. Run the completed front and inside copies for a few simple scissor cuts and an instant complete foldable. Or, do a bit of both...just run the cover and have students cut and paste parts in the appropriate spot.

Bathroom/Drink Passes (4 passes per sheet)

Bathroom/Drink Passes (4 passes per sheet)

(0)
These passes can be used when students request to leave the classroom to either use the bathroom, get a drink or both. I print several passes for each student, I write their name on the back with a sharpie, so no one will be tempted to use another student's pass. Students can keep the passes at their desks and turn in to teacher when using. I choose to put tickets in library card pockets on the wall. I laminate both the pockets and passes which allows them to last all year.
