Yesterday we spent an entire day learning about arsenic in food and water sources, learning valuable information....don't take hot showers, eat brown rice (or any rice for that matter), but seafood, despite really high levels of arsenic compounds, is safe so go and enjoy!
Today we will spend the morning exploring water quality experiments before heading to final analysis of our photographed data and head our on the road by, hopefully, three.
Good workshop, but I remain amazed at how far behind we are in the county at integrating math, science, and technology as problem solving tools. But, I guess as long as we have "STEM lite" proponents in charge of our school's individual initiatives, we will never get to where the future could allow us to take our kids.
What a great week....and I have $200 to spend on stuff...I am buying a set of primary color projection guns to show how color is created using light. Cool stuff!
