OB-Scertainer ® Kit<br />
(Scientific Method)<br />
— Lab-Aids ® No. 100<br />
This kit allows students to “think scientifically." Its<br />
emphasis is on behavioral reaction, rather than what it<br />
is. Emphasizes the development of the scientific method<br />
of problem solving. Students develop a hypothesis<br />
about the inner configuration of an Ob-Scertainer ® by<br />
indirect observation. They test their hypothesis and<br />
make a new one, if necessary. The students continue to<br />
experiment and can verify their hypothesis if so desired.<br />
The kit consists of 24 opaque chambers (two each of 12<br />
different interior structures) and steel balls. This reusable<br />
kit can be used by 24 students simultaneously. Sh. wt.<br />
1.59 kgs.<br />

Integrating Science<br />
with Mathematics<br />
& Literacy<br />
Offers more than 20<br />
performance assessments<br />
that promote<br />
student engagement.<br />
Assessments can be used<br />
in building understanding<br />
of content and processes,<br />
development of complex<br />
thinking skills, aptitude<br />
of science, and ability to make real-world connections.<br />
Each clearly articulated task correlates with current<br />
research and focuses on learning indicators linked to<br />
state and national standards. The assessments also model<br />
inquiry-based science in ways proven to increase student<br />
achievement, allowing learners to demonstrate their<br />
understanding of embedded concepts through exploration,<br />
inquiry, and application.<br />

How Scientists Do Science<br />
Teach students basic problem-solving skills! Challenge<br />
them to develop and test a hypothesis which determines<br />
the ideal environmental conditions for specially encapsulated<br />
sponge animals to emerge from their “cocoons.” In<br />
the process, they learn the basics of how scientists design<br />
experiments, control variables, gather information, summarize<br />
and present data, and solve scientific problems.<br />
Enough <strong>materials</strong> for a class of 40 students. Grades 5-12.<br />
