Observing leaves as they change color. The filters are used to transfer the colors of the leaves. Tape off part of the leaf and watch as light makes it change color like they do in the fall.

  Students can plant all different types of plants. This project could be used for older students who are learning more details about plants or who are trying to do experiments on what makes plants grow best. ELL and special needs students could help by planting the seeds in the box when first constructing the garden. Advanced students could draw and label the parts of the plants that were planted.

Adaptations: ESL & Special Ed Students can draw pictures in their journal to show their knowledge. A movie on the topic could be provided to extend knowledge after journals are complete to assess accuracy of predictions. Gifted students can predict what the ants will need for their habitat/survival.

  If I were to do this activity I would instead give the students a set of materials that they can use and have groups compete to use the same materials to design the best marshmallow launcher. Before beginning, talk to students about strategies for solving this type of problem, such as sketching a plan of the design.

  I like this activity because it works well for a wide variety of students. For students who are easily overwhelmed reduce the number of scents to match. High level students could be asked to come up with an idea for another experiment like this one but for a different sense. Consider allergies when you plan this activity!

  1.3.3 "Observe and explain that plants and animals have basic needs for growth and survival: plants need to take in water and need light, and animals need to take in water and food and have a way to dispose of waste." This activity can be modified for ELL students by having them strictly draw pictures of their observations, rather than writing words to describe their observations. This can also be adjusted for older grades, by having them grow several different types of flowers, or by using different fertilizers to help the flowers grow. The students can then compare their effects of the different fertilizers on the same flowers.
