Magic Fish

 

I wanted a more hands on science so when we were at the last home school convention I let Kit pick a science kit to do. I wanted her to be able to choose the topic so that she will like it. She choose polymers from the Academy of Science for Kids. We do each of the 12 units on Fridays and Kit has invited her friend Miss Ripstick. This week they were doing Figure Out These Funny Fish. They had to make a hypothesis and then test it. I like the scientific process that they are learning. Their first hypothesis was incorrect and they had to devise another one. That was very beneficial for them also. They don't need to be correct the first time.
