Rubber band challenge part I
Look around your classroom and find rubber bands of different sizes. Allow students to be challenged by using their resources and question them a lot as most do not read directions as carefully as they should. The large rubber bands I used were bigger than 10 centimeters so students had to figure out how to complete the tasks at hand. Giving kids limited directions and asking them why they are conducting tests the way they are really helps them to think outside of the box. Throw scientific w
