The activity/event should bring to the attention of students (and teachers and the community) the relevance of science to everyday life and/or to industry. The activity/event should support the ongoing and increased participation in, and engagement with, science programs within your school. The activity/event should be manageable with the funds granted and the contribution from your school and community. An indication of the funding/resources/personnel that your school is willing to contribute will help the selection panel determine the extent to which this criterion can be met.Please note: Funding offered to an applicant may not be the same as the amount requested. Due to the limited availability of funding, the costs of transport, food, routine science incursions and excursions (such as to museums/science centres) are unlikely to be funded. lynette_martin2 https://padlet.com/lynette_martin2/oau5w5gg2r1e/wish/244305852 2018-03-20 22:56:44 UTC https://padlet.com/lynette_martin2/oau5w5gg2r1e/wish/244305852 Science Fairs/Expos always a favourite! lynette_martin2 https://padlet.com/lynette_martin2/oau5w5gg2r1e/wish/244306238 Lynette

Cooking using solar ovens kids have made? Design a recipe using produce from the garden? - Tegan]]> 2018-03-20 23:49:44 UTC https://padlet.com/lynette_martin2/oau5w5gg2r1e/wish/244314348 https://padlet.com/lynette_martin2/oau5w5gg2r1e/wish/244314642 Ooooh!

Don’t know if this would work or not, it is set out as one of the projects from that scitech steam initiative last year.
Esther ]]> 2018-03-22 08:01:13 UTC https://padlet.com/lynette_martin2/oau5w5gg2r1e/wish/244863918 I like the aluminium can sculptures (native animals) made from recycled materials at Coolbinia PS- the children feed their aluminium cans into the sculpture they've made then empty them out at later date (anna) ScitechPL https://padlet.com/lynette_martin2/oau5w5gg2r1e/wish/248380809 2018-04-04 06:41:08 UTC https://padlet.com/lynette_martin2/oau5w5gg2r1e/wish/248380809 Some of the ideas from the ASTA resource book- Augmented Reality. I saw a great PD called Poke Science- where using AR the teacher created a pokemon type science treasure hunt around the school? Could this be linked to Sustainability awareness? (Anna) ScitechPL https://padlet.com/lynette_martin2/oau5w5gg2r1e/wish/248381914 This could become a community challenge?

This activity is a good one ScitechPL https://padlet.com/lynette_martin2/oau5w5gg2r1e/wish/248384198 (Anna) ]]> 2018-04-04 06:54:06 UTC https://padlet.com/lynette_martin2/oau5w5gg2r1e/wish/248384198 How about Sustainability Trading Cards? ScitechPL https://padlet.com/lynette_martin2/oau5w5gg2r1e/wish/248467173 Something like Top Trumps- children design set of cards and rate them accordingly for it's sustainable properties? It's a learning activity and a game player- Years groups could work on different products/ or specific ratings etc (Anna)]]> 2018-04-04 12:58:13 UTC https://padlet.com/lynette_martin2/oau5w5gg2r1e/wish/248467173 Fame Lab ScitechPL https://padlet.com/lynette_martin2/oau5w5gg2r1e/wish/248468152 Children can present a 3 minute presentation on a Science topic of their choice- using demonstration etc. or explain a topic...be shown a video and in groups have to then "explain the science" in a set period of time- in any way- they can act in out/ rap about it/put it against an analogy of something else?
