Description
Skip the lecture and cover the scientific method with an engaging hands-on activity about modeling dough. Students base their question on the dough-making process or ingredients, identify variables, design an experiment, then explore the steps of the scientific method. The possibilities are endless! Activity contains instructions that offer the flexibility of a student-selected or teacher-guided topic. Both options foster creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. Materials support 10 groups. Needed but not supplied: water, hot plates, and general lab equipment. Instructions included.
