Hi Aoife,
I clicked into the website you suggested http://www.sciencebuddies.org and was immediately drawn in by the incredibly interesting STEM titles that I can actually imagine my previous class really loving such as Elephant Toothpaste/ Making Ice Cream in a Bag.
I always want to make science fun for the children and can sometimes become overwhelmed with programmes and curriculum objectives and school science plans (which don’t always help with integration) but this website has so many new ideas I had never seen before and makes the search for them so much easier. Instead of spending hours scouring through potential experiments online this website offers a great opportunity to pick out one very quickly and spend time productively preparing for and differentiating for the STEM activity. I have added the website to a science Symbaloo along with others suggested on this course. Symbaloo allows you to access all your links at the click of a button and ensures I won’t forget it come September.
