Science Play Project

One of the first big assignments for the year was creating a science activity to teach to students. We were divided into groups of 2 to come up with an activity based on a topic. My groups topic was the Law of Inertia. Seeing as I have not studied this in years, it was interesting to go back to it. We created several activities for the children to do, and show off what the law of inertia was. The first was we brought in Newton’s Cradle. It was a way to teach the students how an object in motion stays in motion until a force stops it. We then brought in a pendulum to show a different aspect of inertia. Then it was time for the fun activity! Our activity was Egg in a Glass. The students were to get an egg into a glass of water using an egg, toilet paper roll, pie tin, and a glass of water. Below is the steps to our activity. Unfortunately, due to weather we were not able to do our activities in front of the students, but we did a moc one in the classroom.

  1. It was a great interactive activity to do with children. Even though it was done within my cohort, the activities we did were engaging.
