Becoming a Scientist Unit Plan
This is the first unit that I use in my sixth-grade science class. It covers classroom expectations, lab safety rules and symbols, the metric system, and includes an experiment where student compare and test their unique designs. My students use a lab notebook, so pages are meant to be cut and glued into the notebook. However, the pages can be easily completed on their own without the notebook.
This unit also includes references to the New Generation Science Standards (public draft from June 20

6 Investigations: How does learning happen? (Based on Brain Rules!)
During the first week of school, before I start digging into inquiry, I like to illuminate how I use brain research in my teaching-- no matter what content or process is. The easiest way to show students the rationale behind everything from homework to dancing about chromosomes is to prove it to them.
John Medina wrote a book entitled "Brain Rules" that serves as the basis for this series of investigations. Within each investigation, we explore the inquiry process, look at data from Medina's we

Plants: Lesson 7: Experimental Design-- Writing Procedures
By this point, students should have the basics of their experiment underway-- their independent, control, and dependent variables.
We will then focus on writing good procedures by trying to follow directions that clearly do not work! After a jigsaw activity, students will come up with the rationale for writing a good procedure, fix poorly written procedures, and come up with rules for writing good procedures. Finally, students (in teams of 2-3) will begin writing their own. If time, students w
