I have used this resource for years at this point. This is one of the things I use for the beginning of the year Science Lab activities. Good Resource
Excellent resource. Very helpful to get students acclimated to hands-on, lab based science class.
I used it to as a way to help the kids who haven't really been a lab, some experiences all in one day.
These task cards are a great way of assessing student's basic science skills and getting to know your students.
I used this at the beginning of the year. It was a great way to identify strengths and weaknesses in order to better plan. Thank you!
Awesome resource
Great task cards
Great resource!
