Students work collaboratively to research and record information about different spinoffs of space exploration. Using the information they find, students then write a script to be produced into a podcast or vodcast.
Material Type: Lesson Plan
This lesson plan includes two activities designed to demonstrate the effects of acid rain on physical structures such as rocks, buildings, and statues and on living organisms (plants). In the first activity students will make observations after dropping samples of water and vinegar on chalk. In the second activity students will plant bean seeds to produce three separate bean plants. One plant will be given only water; one plant will be given only vinegar; one plant will be given a 50/50 water/vinegar solution. Students will form hypotheses, and then make observations and collect and graph height data as the plants grow.
