I hope to make my classroom a place of curiosity and visual thinking. Students will use their prior knowledge and the skills they learn in my classroom to be inspired in their science education. These amazing resources will be used to give my middle school students hands on, steam inspired, NGSS aligned activities that will be memorable and encourage them to discuss scientific phenomena both in and out of the classroom. We will be utilizing the digital scopes to zoom in and create digital records of our learning paths. This will allow the students to show me what they have learned and make their learning visible to themselves and their classmates. The magnets will be a hands on tool to understand forces, energy flow and more. Newton's cradle allows students to play with the laws of physics and feel what it means for energy to be transferred from one object to another.
