Build Your Own Science Kit!
One of the best things about hands on science is that you probably don’t need to leave your house. You could go to the store and pick up a crystal growing kit, but if you have sugar and water, you can create crystals without a kit. In fact, you can complete many experiments with things you already have in your kitchen, bathroom, and even garage! Gathering these supplies and stocking a science kit can make spontaneous experiments in your classroom or home even easier. As a science teacher, here are some “go-to” items you can use over and over!
The Physics of Badminton
Imagine you’re playing a fun, summer game of badminton in your backyard. Your sister smacks the birdie across the net directly at you and, whoosh! You hit it back. For a moment, it looks like it’s going to fly right into the neighbor’s yard, but then it slows and falls, barely crossing the net.
The Design of Density
Sometimes when we talk about 2 people who don’t get along, we might say they are like oil and water. We mean they don’t mix well together. Have you ever tried to mix oil and water? Even if you stir or shake the solution, the oil and water eventually separate.
Have you thought about why oil and water don’t mix? It’s all related to a concept called density.
