Science in the Elementary Classroom

-

     Science has always been one of my favorite subjects in school!  I know, I know what you're thinking...ewwww I hate science 😂!  Okay maybe you're not saying that, but then again maybe you are.  I have heard of so many colleagues throughout my years as a teacher, teaching science so minimally that it hurts.  I love teaching science!  Fun fact: in college I was the ONLY science and education major!  That says a lot!

    Anyway, science can be so fun, exciting, engaging, and hands on in the classroom.  It is an opportunity for students to explore and figure things out on their own with teacher guidance.  They have the chance to work with partners and form hypotheses.  There are a TON of great resources online from BrainPop to great channels on YouTube like SciShow Kids and ScienceMAX to name a few.  

Teaching science doesn't have to be difficult or scary.

  • Pick a topic
  • Watch a video clip on topic
  • Plan a simple experiment
  • Have students make a prediction
  • Work with partners or groups on experiment
  • Have students share their findings
    It's that simple to start incorporating some more science and hands on experiments in the classroom.  Your students will thank you!

    I am here to tell you that I have been working on some of my science units and activities that I use in my own classroom.  These lessons and activities are geared toward  the elementary classroom.

What Does the Fox Say?

Who knows what the fox actually says? Maybe you can ask him while making this adorable fox craftivity!  I came up with the idea to create the best bulletin board collaboration!  I had to get rid of my winter bulletin boards because  I was sick of snow and cold and very ready for spring and warm weather.   With warmer weather and spring come baby animals, which includes one of my favorite animals... the fox!  Baby foxes are the cutest ever!   Since March is all about Reading, I mashed a bunch of idea together and came up with some pretty cool bulletin boards. First, I drew Fox in Socks!  Then I had my class create foxes and thought of two rhyming words to put on the fox! I also created a clothesline that is hanging pairs of rhyming socks!  Result = the best bulletin board ever! My kids love this craft year after year! This year I created a different bulletin board!  I have als...

This year I will be using a Jungle/Safari theme in my classroom!  I cannot wait!  Last year, I was a maternity leave replacement in Kindergarten and did a rainforest theme!  The room came out extremely cute!  I cant wait to even make it better this year, since this will be my own classroom! Che ck out my other post on a J ungle theme classro om HERE . Last year in my rainforest classroom, I had some really great touches which added character to the room!  I really went over the top and the parents and students loved it!  My welcome board The Jungle / Safari bodies can now be found  HERE due to popular demand. I found the large safari hat at AC Moore.  It is made of foam and is easy to staple up. The tree was made from a large carpet tube and brown paper bags.  I went to Home Depot and asked if they had any carpet tubes.  They are usually glad to give you any they have! Then i just slid the brown paper bags over it one ...

Beach theme classroom complete

spent hours and hours setting up my beach theme classroom and I am so happy with the results.  Take a look! My door: Outside bulletin board: Get these ADORABLE beach bodies HERE Class rules and essential questions: Meeting area: Behavior board: Outside bulletin board with student work: Job board and schedule: Since I lack bulletin boards I used my metal closet. I used colorful duck tape as a border around fadeless paper. I used magnets on paper pockets to display the jobs.  Students faces were put on Popsicle sticks to make switching jobs easy.  Get the schedule cards HERE I built shelves for my lockers since I have kindergarteners and need to put 3 students in each locker.  I used magnetic borders on the side of a filing cabinet to place a pocket chart. I will also be using this as the magnetic letter center.  And of course I have my reading hut made of bamboo and raffia.  ...
