I want to give my students the opportunity to learn science concepts through experience and inquiry-based learning. We study forces and motion so we will use hot wheel tracks to perform collisions between hot wheels that students have weighed. This gives them a chance to apply their learning to real-life collisions and how they happen. We study magnets and electromagnetism. It is an especially difficult concept to grasp without visual/hands-on learning examples but when students can have magnets in their hands, and feel the invisible forces that make magnets work they can come to understand it better. We also study fossils. How can students learn about fossils without holding one in their hands and take a good look at some real fossils?
