JoinThinking Like a Ssssscientist!
A fear of snakes developed into an opportunity to teach students about the process of science: formulating questions, collecting and analyzing data, and communicating findings to the public. By using snakes to help students “think like a scientist,” the authors engaged students in a five-day unit on inquiry while providing information about snakes found in their local community. As a result of this unit, students were encouraged to keep thinking like ssssscientists!
