Ocean Exploration: Interactive Unit Study
Class experience
Welcome to Ocean Exploration: Interactive Unit Study! Join us each week to learn about a new marine topic. We will start with an introductory class that will prepare students with some basic facts and vocabulary associated with ocean science. This will lead us into our hands-on exploration activity with pH. Each class is meant to lightly introduce a new topic every week. Be sure to look at the topic list below! Students will be able to use gained knowledge from previous weeks to make...
*This is a complete list of supplies for this semester. In the classroom, there will be amazon links if students would like to purchase certain tools to use, such as pipettes. I will post in the classroom each week prior to the lesson the supplies needed. -red cabbage -a knife and cutting board -pot -water -measuring cup -3 test tubes OR clear glasses for the visual baseline -eye droppers (Sometimes I use the small medicine syringes, if you can't get the eye droppers. You can always just use a spoon as well :) -Choose several of these household items to test (you don't have to bring them all- just which ones you'd like to test!): bleach, orange juice, salt, pickle juice, shampoo, tomato juice, window cleaner) -table salt -yellow, blue, and red food coloring -room temperature, ice-cold, and hot water -1 clear rectangular container (I usually use a clear tupperware type container. You'll want it to be clear so that you can see the reactions inside) -1 book or block of wood (just something to put under the container to lift it up) -1 measuring cup -1 mixing spoon -An aquarium or 5 gallon bucket (filled with water) -Toothpicks -Sponges -Scissors -Metal washers (or the small magnets that you use for crafts would work also) -Feathers -Beads -Straws 9x13 glass dish or aluminum pans (you could also use a cake pan) cold water hot water quart size liplock bags 2 clothespins 2 different color food dyes 2 pipettes 1 rock ice cubes towels in case we need to clean up 1 quart jar, large glass, or cylinder shaped flower vase (anything that is clear and tall will work) water cooking oil corn syrup dish soap rubbing alcohol food dye spoon extra cups -small bin of water (about the size we had last week will do) -two quart size baggies -vegetable oil -more water (if you are near a sink or just want to have a cup of water ready that's good) -1 tissue Oil: a mixture of 3 parts vegetable oil to 1 part cocoa powder Water Aluminum roasting pan or a longer plastic container Aluminum foil Paper towels Popsicle™ sticks String Nylon (cut-up pantyhose work best) Loose hair (if you can't use hair, you can try cat or dog hair...sounds gross, but you'll definitely think it's interesting!!!) Hay (if you can't find hair, we'll try it with hay) Cotton balls Any other materials that you want to try Dawn dish detergent Paper plates or aluminum pie plates to gather used materials, or you can use a plastic bag or trash can... just something to throw your items into as we finish with them -clear container -clay, silly putty or large rocks (rocks will probably be the least messiest) -ice cubes -water -ruler -tape -a box fan or other type of fan and a place to plug it in -any of all of the following supplies: pipe cleaners, cardboard, glue, popsicle sticks, rubberbands, paper clips, cardstock, toothpicks, or plastic baggies, toilet paper rolls, egg cartons
