Natural Surroundings

Hello,
Today we went for a bike ride to our local lake.  When arriving we were able to make scientific observations like when the wind stops blowing the mosquito's will start biting you and how the carp were jumping from one water source to another.  We were able to use both engineering and science this morning in our discoveries.  Often times I don't think that kids or adults take time out of their days to really observe their surroundings.  We have a gift and we need to enjoy it.

Stem Kits

Sorry it has been a while since I have blogged.  I was on vacation and getting ready for school to start up again.  I am currently taking a STEM class about Science.  I am looking forward to it and will post what I have learned as I go along.  We have been making lots of slime around here and some volcanoes.  I am learning that having a Science Kit for your discoveries is beneficial so that you don't have to run to the store to get supplies.  What things should you put into a Science Kit?  I would put things like a funnel, scale, and beakers.  I am looking forward to hearing some of your idea's.
