Teacher Notes
 |
►A strong 6-page set of
Teacher Notes
full of illustrations and details (shown left):
- Page 1 is divided into 3 easy-to-follow sections: How To Use
Interactive Notes, Student Materials (linked to a science supply
company), and Beforehand.
- Pages 2-5 each focuses on one of the four student-performed demonstrations. They begin with a screenshot and a paragraph describing how students do the demo. The rest of the page contains more information you need to know, like- advice on how the demo works best, links/resources, cautions, different ways of doing the demo, and things you might say.
- The last page explains how to get the materials cleaned up and ready for your next science class most efficiently. Students do all the work!
►A clear 6 slide
PowerPoint (shown right) that leads you and your students through the 4 demonstrations. There are 4 parts to each slide: the drawing, what we did, what we saw, and what's happening. As each appears, it cues students to write it on their handout.
►A
student handout that follows the same format that the PowerPoint uses, which makes it easy for students to follow.
►A document that explains
how the Interactive Notes system works.
►16
pictures and drawings you can use any way you like to reinforce concepts.

Advantages
Because every one of our lessons has been used for at least two years in a real classroom you know you’re more than a great-sounding idea that might work. You’re getting lessons in which the kinks have been worked out, leaving a consistent flow from beginning to end. You’re also getting a thorough set of teacher notes that reflect what actually happened, and not what we hope or think will. In other words, ours have actual classroom experience, and that is a valuable thing.
We all know what it’s like to try to use a vague or idealistic teacher guide that couldn’t possibly have been tried out before it was typed, because it didn’t work! That won’t happen with our lessons.
Buying Into It
What's the hardest part of any lesson? For most of us it's capturing our students’ attention. Since worksheets usually aren’t that breathtaking, we found that a different approach works better. Our lessons were designed to be interactive with your students- to provide a reason for them to listen as well as give you a centerpiece you can build on. An involved student will pay attention and take ownership in the activity, which fuels their interest even more. And that’s what causes them to "buy into it".
