Class Experience

In this class, students will use the parts of scientific method to experiment with a pendulum. We will discuss the types and uses of pendulums and set up an experiment in order to test three lengths of pendulums. The parts of scientific method that students will learn are: statement of problem, hypothesis, materials list, independent variable, dependent variable, variables held constant, procedure, data, summary, interpretation of data, conclusion, and future. Students will collect data, average it, and learn to analyze it in order to learn about a summary, interpretation of data, and conclusion.

Learning Goals

Students will increase their understanding of scientific method and how to apply it to an experiment.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! I love teaching all science disciplines, as well as language arts, reading, and music. I am a recently-retired public school teacher. I taught fourth-, fifth- and sixth-grade students for thirty-seven years with an emphasis in science and robotics! I enjoy watching children become excited about the world around us as they learn new skills in science. I believe that students who work to set goals and achieve them can gain poise and self-esteem.
In my spare time, I am an avid runner, horseback rider, bird watcher, and kayaker. I love to sew, knit, garden, and play the flute, guitar, and piano
