61 activities for science class  

by Kathy Cramer, Sherry Twyman, & Wallie Winholtz -- Inspired by the National Science Education 61 cooperative learning activities for science class Standards and the Benchmark for Science Literacy, the 61 motivating activities in this book cover an array of topics from life, physical, earth and space science. These are not your typical activity book activities either! -- Students make field observations of common trees, chart their observations, and classify each tree, then measure volume and mass of wood-block samples, record data and computer densities, and make inferences about wood value. -- They practice careful observation and communication skills by attempting to inform a partner how to duplicate construction of a structure that has not been seen by the partner. And theyll measure the lifting power of a helium balloon, then calculate the mass of paper load needed to slow the balloons ascent. -- These activities were designed to get your students working together, using their creativity to solve problems, and thinking instead of memorizing. For each activity there is a reproducible student sheet with background information and step by step directions, and a teacher's guide page giving objectives, time required, recommended group size, necessary materials and assessment guidelines. -- Grades 5-8. 134 pp., softcover.
