Class Description: I will emphasize the scientific method, good lab procedures and having fun with science.  Children learn by doing, so we will spend most of our class time doing experiments and procedures.  I send home "information sheets" for each lesson which includes vocabulary that I would like the kids to be familiar with.  I will also send home worksheets or some form of "homework" about twice a month.  There will be a few out of class assignments such as an insect collection, a leaf collection and a seed collection.  Occasionally I ask the students to look for articles about the current topic.                             

Supply list: Loose-leaf notebook and paper, a set of colored pencils, pen and pencil.
