Description

With the powerful strategies shared in this workshop, you will learn simple, yet exciting ways to capture (and keep) attention in your science classroom. Meaningful, motivating, and fun lessons are designed to build understanding of important chemistry concepts and expand investigative skills. In this workshop, learn to help students work as scientists do by identifying questions to test and systems to experiment on, designing experiments, establishing protocols to follow, and collecting data. You will also learn to help students use this information to formulate claims that can be substantiated by their findings and subsequently shared, allowing for open discussion, debate, and scientific argumentation.

Watch clips from a Chemistry with Charisma workshop and clips of kids investigating self-inflating balloons.
