What are Harrison students up to this week?????

Look at that cart! What could we possibly be up to this week? diapers, baggies, water, nail polish, cups, black construction paper, plates, balloons, cotton balls, and Quirkles. Check out our page for clues. And don't forget to ask your students!

What a busy week at Harrison!

Whew! Made it through Wednesday! Ask students about pennies and water; about corn kernels, baking soda, and vinegar; and beans! We are still working on the scientific method...there are some silly actions...see if can use them to remember the steps.
Thursday and Friday I will be spending time with my husband in Boise, please treat my guest teacher kindly. I know you all will use your habits and help her out. Thanks for taking care of her for me. :)

It's MONDAY!

That means I am at Bickel!
We are working on the steps of the scientific method--observe, question, hypothesis, experiment, record data, analyze results, and communicate with others. Ask your students what the actions are for each step to help us remember them better.

PS check out the pictures on Harrions's page. :)

What do these things have in common?

eggs, milk, food coloring, salt, spoons, pennies, vineagar, Q-tips, paper towels, beans, and water-----lots of water?

Once you have a HYPOTHESIS, check out Harrison's page (experiment) to see if you are right (analyze results).

Peek at what Bickel science classes have been up to this week.

Bickel students have been creating and experimenting with yeast, hydrogen peroxide, and dish soap. Check out Bickel's page and see what they are doing.

Check out what's been happening at Harrison this week!

This week Harrison students seem to all forgotten to bring their pet elephants to school to test out our waaaay cool elephant toothpaste! Ask your student how we made elephant toothpaste and how we changed the experiment.

Welcome back for a new and exciting year!

A few things will be different at both schools. They both are instituting a rotation schedule for the classes to compensate for missed Fridays and number of students. At Harrison I will be the 'traveling science teacher'. May need to find a catchy phrase to go with the amazing blue cart! It may be a challenge to keep track of where I am supposed to be and who I am supposed to see, but I LOVE an adventure!
