Introduction to Scientific Inquiry: Slushy Time!
Using rock salt, ice, juice, and thermometers, students will use their inquiry framework to investigate how slushies are made and see if they are able to replicate the results of a traditional slushy. Students will need access to a variety of materials, cups, and liquids to test out how energy (heat) transfers between objects and evaluate scientific data on different materials.

In this engaging lesson, students will research and design rhythm sticks. They will use them in music and PE class to exercise and create music with. This hands-on lesson incorporates multiple areas
This lesson will explore the idea of circuits as the students wire the components of a together to create a working wobble-bot.
Students will use published scientific data and current evidence to identify the phenomenon known an urban heat island effect. Students will first analyze temperature data as well as land-use data
