    It sounds like your lesson using “Aliens in Underpants” was a fantastic and engaging way to introduce scientific inquiry! The hands-on activity of testing different materials for their absorption properties would make learning fun. I appreciate how you ensured the experiment was fair by using underpants of the same size and the observation of water dripping added a visual element that likely enhanced understanding.

    I’m glad you found the rocket mice activity in the module appealing. Safety and productivity concerns are valid, but with careful planning and supervision, making rockets can be both exciting and educational for young learners. Incorporating this into your Aistear stations during Science Week sounds like a brilliant idea. Integrating these activities will not only enrich your science lessons but also foster a love for exploration and experimentation in your students.
