Shownotes

In this episode, I share ways to teach students about water through engaging activities. From the changing states of water, to conducting fun experiments on absorption, sinking/floating, and melting. These experiments encourage the students to make predictions and challenge their expectations.

In this episode I share:

  • Students' initial ideas and misconceptions about water
  • Importance of addressing student misunderstandings
  • Play-based exploration with water and different materials
  • Activities for absorbing, repelling, changing states, sinking, and floating
