[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child's MS science teacher has the kids grow plants, mix materials for chemical reactions, and do other small experiments to record observations. This is not done at other schools? I took it for granted it was the norm.[/quote] Me too. I’m appalled on behalf on all students that this is not the norm. Science and experimentation isn’t just about things going right and getting the desired result. A lot goes wrong and you have to be able to record that and analyze why and what next step to take, what to change, create new hypothesis.[/quote] But science "labs" in middle school and high school in the US have traditionally been cookbook recipes.[/quote] Frog legs! Ymm![/quote]
