As a teacher, you can set up a science corner in a designated area of your classroom. Students know that when science is happening, this is where it's at. Some ideas to keep in mind:
- Seasonal changes: When the seasons change, change up the items in the science corner to reflect that. For example: in the fall, bring in acorns, pine cones, leaves, etc.
- Unit-related materials: As your science unit changes, make sure the science corner incorporates the new content.
- Class collection: Encourage students to bring in items they found in nature that interested them. Not only will this encourage students to really look at nature, but it will allow them to bring their experiences to the classroom. This will further translate into other subjects as well.
