The Scientific Method - Soda and Mentos Experiment - Large Group
This is slightly different than the standard “Diet Coke + Mentos” Experiment. This is a teacher guided/instructed experiment to teach the students how to solve a problem using the scientific method. In this experiment, the students are still testing if Diet Coke is the best soda to use in the soda/Mentos eruption, but the teacher takes the time to discuss each part of the method and define the terminology. There are spaces for students to fill in definitions, and it is recommended that the te

Shadow Investigation - Exploring the Relationship Between the Sun & Shadows
The first lesson in a series of lessons that explores how people began and continue to tell time on Earth. In this lesson, students build a simple gnoman, the piece of a sundial that creates a shadow. Throughout the day, students track the changes in length and direction of the shadow. After students analyze the relationship, they are asked to build an argument from evidence for how the Sun moves through the sky based on their investigation. This lesson can be done in a variety of ways. I’ve inc

The Scientific Method - The Empty Can Makes The Most Noise Experiment
The purpose of this activity is to allow students to think critically to answer a seemingly simple question. In this case, it’s answer an old idiom that says an empty can will make more noise than a full one. You can either examine that question literally (which is what this experiment covers), or the students can look at this question figuratively (do people that have very little expertise/knowledge talk more than someone who is educated in the field?). The students will need to use the scie
