Dr. Ellis is back from vacation and is beginning to read through our guides! It'll be great to get some feedback and be able to finalize the activities.
Today Taylor and I were able to test her Megalodon tooth activity in the museum and it was actually a lot of fun! We had visitors measure the sharks teeth (at the widest part) and multiply by 10 to figure out how long that particular shark would have been (1 inch of tooth equals 10 feet of shark). We also had a tape measure so that kids could have a visual for how long the shark was. We even had some adults come over who were really interested in the ratio that exists between the width of a tooth and the length of a shark.

That's all I have! See y'all Wednesday!
It took me a while to realize this was your post and not Taylor's because of the picture :) It's really cool that you guys get to test out your activities for some feedback. I really wanted to do that with mine activities, but they're all around 30 minutes to an hour long, so I can't really sit in the gallery and have visitors test it out. Good luck on changing your activity to try to make it work for the little guys!
ReplyDeleteTaylor looks very welcoming lol. The activity looks really cool im glad you've gotten to make progress on your work, and as for not knowing what week it is don`t feel bad I don`t know either (:
ReplyDeleteCool set up you have going on there. I like how you are adjusting your activity for the younger kids. I am also trying to make my project accessible to wide age group.
