Who invented the ice cream cone? Why are there so many different sizes, shapes, textures, and flavors of ice cream cones? What is the scientific method, and what do ice cream cones have to do it? Which ice cream cones taste the best? Which ones hold up to melted ice cream the best? These are just a few of the questions we will address in Ice Cream Cone Science & More! We are going to learn about the history of ice cream cones while we participate in some science experiments and engineering challenges involving ice cream cones. We will learn about the "Great Ice Cream Cone Controversy" at the St Louis World's Fair in 1904, observe different kinds of ice cream cones, and do some experiments to help us hypothesize WHY there are different types of ice cream cones. We will do a taste test, a "soggy" test, and a few ice cream cone engineering challeges. This will be a live video class. I will start with a class discussion and some story telling, but then we will quickly jump in to the hands-on portion of the class. I will model the different activities, and the learners will perform their own versions at home. Our focus will be on DOING science. We will discuss our results and end up knowing more about ice cream cones than we ever did before! Students do not need to have any background knowledge about ice cream cones or science for this class; they just need to be curious. The Supply List is optional (learners can still observe my experiments and participate in the class discussions), but I do recommend having a few ice cream cones on hand for the learners to taste, feel, and experiment with!
Metas de aprendizaje
Students will hone their observation skills while practicing the scientific method.

Recursos externos
Los estudiantes no necesitarán utilizar ninguna aplicación o sitio web más allá de las herramientas estándar de Outschool.
