Science Photo Essay

This photo essay was created for students to explore the world around and see how science affects their everyday lives.

Context:  This photo essay was created for my GS 4401 Science and Science Teaching in the Elementary School under the instruction of Dr. Jeff Goodman in the Fall of 2007. The technology used for this project included a digital camera, and power point to present the pictures and the pertaining questions.

Impact: This activity will is a tangible artifact that I will be able to use in my classroom as a introduction activity or a project that students can do themselves.

Alignment: I met standard 15 Indicator 1 by using objects in children's everyday environment to show how science affects their lives.
