| OTHER THINGS TO CONSIDER |
• Duplicate student sheets • Activity 2: To
save on aluminum foil, runways could be made by one class and
reused by all classes although there is value in having the
students follow directions to make their own. • Activity
6: There should be only one set of salt solutions for a class.
At the end of the class, any remaining water should be tossed.
The next class will make up a new salt solutions for watering
the plants. |
