Science Projects for Holidays Throughout the Year - Complete Lessons for the Elementary Grades (Paperback)

Holidays and special events are times of excitement and energy. Children are quick to pick up on this excitement. One of our teachers has dubbed it the "holiday crazies." If the "crazies" are viewed to be an obstacle, productive learning can be difficult, but if dealt with as a positive thing, this youthful enthusiasm can provide the motivation for otherwise untapped learning opportunities. Science Projects for Holidays throughout the Year was developed to help teachers turn the "holiday crazies" into a fun and exciting time to learn about science. Holiday celebrations and science make a great team-because the crafts often associated with holidays are typically rooted in science, tying them to productive hands-on science lessons makes for good learning experiences. Use holidays and other special days to engage students in fun hands-on science. * 23 complete lessons * Includes historical and cultural background information * Cross-curricular integration * National Science Education Standards * 374 pages * Grades K-5
