Description
THANKSGIVING ACTIVITIES FOR KIDS
This Thanksgiving Science pack includes 5 investigations to help you celebrate the season in rich academic ways with your primary students. Each standards-based investigation is collaborative, hands-on, and requires reflection and written responses.
5 SCIENCE INVESTIGATIONS:
- Shake It Up!: States of Matter
- A Corny Surprise: Plant Life Cycles
- Will the Feast Float?: Sinking and Floating
- Pass the Pie: Our Five Senses
- Boat Builders: A Team Engineering Challenge
All copies are provided in black & white so they are copier-friendly.
NOTE: Because some of the history around Thanksgiving centers around a feast, small food items are needed for a few of the investigations. If you choose to do these labs with your students you will need these donations:
- heavy cream
- a small bag of fresh cranberries
- an ear of corn
- a sweet potato
- a dinner roll
- a slice of turkey
- a small pumpkin
- one of each pie flavor: apple, cherry, and pumpkin
Click on the PREVIEW to see sample pages from each science lab.
