Proposal

5th graders

Topics: Light, motion, sound, energy.

Students will be assigned a group to work with and a topic for your group. Within your group you are to first explore your topic and learn the basics. Some questions you should be able to answer are: What is light/motion/sound/energy? How does this relate to what we are learning in class? Are there different types of this thing and if so what are they? Please do not only answer these questions, these are only a starting point.

After exploring in science class with your group, we will all go on a field trip to the Great Lakes Science Center. Here there are many exhibits and each of your topics are explained at one of these. You must take notes at the exhibit that displays your topic. Once we get back to school you and your group members are to create a 3D presentation on your topic.
