Wednesday Wrap-Up

I thought today was helpful in terms of using simple concepts to demonstrate activities useful in the elementary classroom. Once again, all levels can use the information presented to a different degree. It is much the same in our class as it would be in a real setting because of the wide variety of backgrounds. Some of us have little or no science background whereas others have a lot. Also, some of us have life science or chemistry where others may have more of a physical science understanding. I think each day gets us thinking more and more (or at least it should) about what things we can incorporate into our own teaching at various levels as well as the corroboration that may be necessary for this type of teaching to work. I love all of the ideas so far!
