Muchas de las mentes más brillantes del siglo XX se reunieron un día de 1927 en un mismo lugar—incluyendo a Albert Einstein y Marie Curie.
So, I've been busy getting my beginning of the year science units together. I start the year off in science the same way I start everything else off--by teaching routines and expectations! We start science on the very first day of school! Day 1: What is Science? I ask the kids what they think "science" is and I record their answers on a chart paper. Be prepared for some pretty funny answers! Then I read What is Science by Rebecca Kai Dotlich. I love this book--it is colorful and fun and really gets kids thinking about science and the world in general! Then, with their minds buzzing with possiblities, we add more ideas to our list. Then I introduce our science notebooks. I tell the kids that these are very special notebooks that will help us ask questions about science; make predictions; record observations and data about investigations; and explain their thinking about what they have learned. I hand out the Science Notebook Expectations and we go over them one by one. Then I show the kids how to glue the expectations in their notebooks--focusing on how to turn one page at a time and how to use glue appropriately...

Hand signed PRINT of a drawing on a map of the solar system. This is part of a series called World Tour - in which all the pieces are drawn on vintage maps. Stephen Hawking was a famed physicist and cosmologist. His body may have been imprisoned by the ravages of ALS, but his mind could travel to infinity, and beyond. This is part of a series called World Tour - in which I use pages from an old atlas as canvases - painting images relating to the place on each map. Each archival print is beautifully recreated at original image size, 8" by 12" which sits on piece of paper (with at least 1.5" border on all sides). I use high quality Epson Velvet Fine art Paper paper. These unframed prints are carefully packaged in durable tube, and mailed via US postal Service. Please inquire about purchasing the original drawing. Please inquire about purchasing the original drawing.

After a thorough investigation of simple machines, the kids picked what type of simple machine they wanted to become experts in. They could become experts in wheels & axels, pulleys, levers, inclined planes, screws or wedges. Each expert team created a poster about their simple machine including photos of examples, most of which we found around our school and playground! We couldn't walk anywhere without them pointing out examples of simple machines! Unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of the posters they made before Spring Break! I will add them tomorrow! Below is a photo of them putting one together. After organizing their data on posters, they decided on a project to create that would show how their simple machine worked. After gathering materials, mostly recyclables and things we had in our classroom or my garage, we got started! The Wheel and Axel experts created a working water wheel. The wedge experts created book ends. The lever experts made a balance scale. The pulley experts created a flag pole. The inclined plane experts created a marble run. The screw experts created a corkscrew slide. The projects were displayed in the hallway along with documentation of our inquiry for parents to see as they came in for parent/teacher conferences. The kids were so proud to show them off! I'm always so proud of how hard they work on their projects. They take them very seriously! Here is a hint to show what the kids have decided to investigate next!
