I chose this science kit because it allows students to watch plants grow and use their skills to observe and take "data" on how the plants grow. I connected this to my content center focus which is math as the students can measure how the plants grow.]]> 2022-10-12 21:41:11 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337712044 chloesullivan430 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337712534 I chose this dinosaur counting activity set because it would go along perfectly with our centers. I also think the students would have no problem completing this center on their own and the teacher could still check it based on how many Dinos are in the egg. I would use this as a math center in my classroom.]]> 2022-10-12 21:41:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337712534 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337712616 I would use these inquiry cubes in my lesson as I would be able to have the children use the cubes to guide their questions towards. How they would make inferences as to what happened in the story that they had read.]]> 2022-10-12 21:41:58 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337712616 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337713189 https://www.discountschoolsupply.com/stem-curriculum/stem/science/sound-science-center/p/s822669

I chose this kit because I think that learning about sound and sound waves is interesting, but not seen as often in the younger grades. This is something engaging and fun that all students can enjoy and see as a game too!

It comes with a lot of tools and containers. ]]> 2022-10-12 21:42:31 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337713212 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337713214 I would buy the Steve Spangler Science Boo Bubbles which cost $31.79. I would involve science in it by doing different bubble solutions and making predictions on which bubble will last the longest with the smoke inside. (I did something like this in my practicum)]]> 2022-10-12 21:42:32 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337713214 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337713290 I chose this product because my science center is about knowing the difference between living and non living things, so students can see visually that living things grow. I think that this would be a fun activity for students to do.]]> 2022-10-12 21:42:37 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337713290 alleeswisher https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337713835 I would use this fish tank to put in growing dinosaur. When I was a kid I would buy really small animals in a package from the store and when you put them in water it would grow over a few days. I think this would be really fun for my students to see a "Dinosaur" grow. ]]> 2022-10-12 21:43:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337713835 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337713969 I like how these items go along with the book just like our center project assignment! You could put the little alligators into a sensory bin. ]]> 2022-10-12 21:43:32 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337713969 lsp84786 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714030 This could be added into our center activity as an owl art project after reading the book Owl Babies. The main focus of our center is science, so I would let students go outside and pick their own pinecones and then they could make an owl habitat with the owl pinecone.]]> 2022-10-12 21:43:39 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714030 akp43916 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714142 I chose this inquiry cube because it is a fun way for young students to build up their inquiry skills that are important in science. I would implement this during experiments/activities so that students can make observations about what they are seeing and help them draw conclusions.]]> 2022-10-12 21:43:46 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714142 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714203 I chose this animal parents science center because our book is Mr. Brown can moo can you. There are a lot of animals in this book so I thought this tied in nicely. Although it would match a little better if the product was more geared towards farm animals. ]]> 2022-10-12 21:43:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714203 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714225 I chose this material because students can compare and create hypothesis about different plants. They can observe how fast or slow different plants grow and see what plants may need more or less water/sunlight to survive. ]]> 2022-10-12 21:43:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714225 lam68318huskiesbloomuedu https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714273 I chose this bug and fossil set. I think this would be great to put in the dinosaur sensory bin and have students be able to match them to a worksheet. The students could feel the different textures of the fossils.]]> 2022-10-12 21:43:56 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714273 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714334 I chose these Acrylic Specimens for my classroom that way my students can look at some of these things up close. I mainly connected this to my center because I did comparing physical characteristics of animals/insects. I thought that as an extension to the center, the students can compare and contrast the characteristics of some other animals/insects that weren't in the book that we read and these would be perfect!]]> 2022-10-12 21:44:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714334 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714343 I chose this science item from this website so students can use it when learning about seeds and plants growing. I would have each student plant their own seed and add the soil, and water so they could watch their own plant grow. I think this would be a fun, and engaging way for students to learn about seeds and growth with getting their hands a little dirty! ]]> 2022-10-12 21:44:02 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714343 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714481 I could use this product because it correlates perfectly to what my center is about. The students were growing crops to sell at Miss. McKenzie's produce stand to help make money to pay for rent.]]> 2022-10-12 21:44:12 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714481 gfw10605 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714725 The item that I chose was capture bubble scissors. To incorporate this into a lesson, I can give each child a pair of these scissors. We could go outside and depending on if we are learning about insects, small rocks, etc, I could have each child get something in their bubble scissors. Then, once everyone has their item we can share what they got, talk about it, and everyone could look at it. Also, we can let everything go outside before we came inside. This is also a plus for these younger age groups because it helps to develop fine motor skills and hand eye coordination. ]]> 2022-10-12 21:44:30 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714725 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714857 I would use this game board to help students learn more about the life cycles and stages with different animals. I like this center activity because it is not specific to one species and can be used with various animals to help with understanding. https://dmzn2b8hkpq8b.cloudfront.net/images/products/515x515/S812910.jpg]]> 2022-10-12 21:44:41 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714857 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714891 I remember someone having a center teaching children about how germs spread. This kit lets students swab different areas of the classroom and then watch as the bacteria grows. $21.29]]> 2022-10-12 21:44:44 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337714891 hms51973 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337715303 I would use a terrarium to watch how plants grow over time and students can have a long term project.]]> 2022-10-12 21:45:17 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337715303 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337715374 I chose the touch-and-match board because it has students exploring through their senses. This item can also be used for children that need a sensory item at their desk. ]]> 2022-10-12 21:45:23 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337715374 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337716082 I could use this clear balloon to teach the three phases of matter (solid, liquid, and gas). ]]> 2022-10-12 21:46:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337716082 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337716309 I chose this because my center is about animals and matching the adult to the baby animal and I think these sticks could help them. ]]> 2022-10-12 21:46:35 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337716309 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337716358 The dinosaur bones and matching cards are a great activity. The bones can be included in a sensory bin so students can be paleontologists. Then they can match up bones to create and measure fossils!]]> 2022-10-12 21:46:38 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337716358 https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337718928 I chose these animal sorting sticks that ask what type of animal is being shown. This relates to my center topic because our book is about owls and students could learn the attributes of owls and what other animals are similar to them.]]> 2022-10-12 21:50:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mmarnell1/dzcz7kqc2x641mrs/wish/2337718928
