Week 14

(3 of the 5 slides we had from our flip video)




This week our group got to investigate the question "Why do cold drinks get water droplets on the outside?"  After we looked at 3 types of simulations and discussed them with our group we learned that the water droplets come from the air, because oxygen carries water particles that are then mixed with the cold of the can to create the water droplets you see on cold soda cans. 

I would like to incorporate flip videos in my classroom. It's a great way for students to show off what they have learned and can be used for more then just science. This uses so many area like art and technology which can make this lesson more engaging for students.

    Hi Olga! Your flip video drawings look great! My group also researched that question, but I was still confused on what the particles do. That makes sense with the oxygen carrying water particles that we can't see hitting the cold can! Flip videos are a great idea to engage students and allows the opportunity for students to learn multiple topics at once. Great job!

    Hi Olga! this is a really awesome post. I also believe in the future I will incorporate flipgrids into my classroom because they are super fun for students to make and they always keep them engaged.

    Elementary Science II Week: October 21th - October 25st  What did you do in lab this week? / What was the big question?  The two discussion topics for this week's lab is geologic time and earth viewer. We began by looking at a presidential elections are impacted by a 100 years old coastline. We learned that parts of the south were underwater as a point in history, flowing the blue line. Then as a class we got to place events on a number line ranging from humans appeared to moon was created. This allowed use to visual see how far away it took earth to become what it is now. It also helps break the misconception that after the big bang earth just appeared. Now that we have learned many things about our universe we answer the question on how to now placed them in order. If we put  all the formations of the Earth on a time line humans have only been part of the timeline for 2 million years.     Answer questions about the weekly text books readings...

   Elementary Science II Week 13: November 18th- November 22th What did you do in the lab this week/ What was the big question:  We started by talking in our groups about the two articles, Couple Inquiry and Sweater, and about how similar and different they are. Both talk about teachers letting go of the control. I think that is something a lot of us are not used to or have never seen. Even as a college student, I am used to being told what to do and study for. To then move to allowing students to take over the lesson can be hard. But both articles make a great point. The sweater article talked about how students naturally lead a lesson if and only need a little bit of guides. The Coupled Inquiry talked about allowing time for freedom but with guidance.  A fun fact that I learned is that Americans are lagging in academics and despise the free education we give. I find it interesting but also not shocking. In all my travels I have seen how smart students can be withou...

What did you do in lab this week? / What was the big question?  My group's big research question was about the earth's origin. There are so many misconceptions about how the Earth was made, for example, the Earth was formed instantly. Historically people used to believe that the Earth was the center of the world. We learned that current science understands that Earth is 4.65 billion years old thanks to geology and fossil studies we were able to set a date for the Earth.  We also got to hear from other groups about the origin of the Universe, the lifecycles of stars, galaxies, Black holes, and exploration of spa...
