Learn how to use new equipment, such as data loggers, appropriately

Science Teaching Ideas

Materials and their properties – use the temperature probe in experiments on what material makes the best insulator. Wrap the materials around beakers of warm water and measure the changing temperature of the water over periods of time.
Minibeasts – Test the soil temperature in different areas of the outdoor environment and compare the different types of plants and minibeasts that can be found there.
Light – Compare the brightness of different light sources.
Sound – Compare the volume of different sound sources or compare materials muffling sound.
