"Live" Geology, Mary Isidore Rohan
"Live" Geology, Mary Isidore Rohan
Iowa Science Teachers Journal
How old is the earth? Where did it come from? How was it made? Junior high students are determined to solve all life's mysteries and therefore geology with its wealth of clues is a likely target for their curiosity. The earth sciences seem to hold an almost mystical fascination for the junior high age child possibly because the adolescent is beginning to realize he is part of the whole universe and not just of a family, and is using his powers of observation to see what this universe holds.

Developing A Science Curriculum In A Small School, Verlin Fleagle
Iowa Science Teachers Journal
Developing a workable curriculum for a school with a total enrollment of 607, kindergarten through twelfth grade, is not quite as easy as it might seem. Bigger schools have a better systematized core program than most small schools.
Ways To Use The Overhead Projector, Bert A. Murphy
Ways To Use The Overhead Projector, Bert A. Murphy
Iowa Science Teachers Journal
The overhead projector, a familiar sight in many science rooms, can be used in a number of interesting ways. In chemistry, I use the overhead to demonstrate reaction rates of metals in acids. Just put your beakers (labeled with wax pencil on the bottom) on the overhead and watch the reactions take place on the wall. You can, also, demonstrate titration end points with the overhead. The colored indicators show up nicely.
