I use science stations on a regular basis in my classroom. My students love them, and I am able to rotate from group to group to answer questions and check for understanding.

A fun lab for students! They loved being able to work in larger groups and became very competitive over their catching abilities. The CER made a great extension. Not all students got expected results but we worked with what they had.

My students were engaged and it was easy to set up and follow. It was a fun way to learn about the nervous system in a way that allowed the students to make connections to the text we had read.
