The next 5 videos are some examples of at home science experiments my students can do. I want my students to choose at least one of these to try at home to give them more experience with science. It is a perfect way for them to be involved and be totally hands on. Good luck!

Glogster

I made a Glogster about substance abuse prevention to make my students aware of the short and long term effects of substance abuse. It's important for my students to understand the seriousness of this. These things do not make someone a bad person, it just inhibits them from being their best self. In order for my students to get far in life and achieve their goals they should try to steer clear of substance abuse.

Google Doc

This was my first Google doc assignment where I decided to create a "get to know you." The document explains the get to know you activity and ideas on what you put in your bag. I want my students to have fun showing off  the items that represent them and at the same time get to know their classmates.
