Paul B's story
Stories with stories is the story of the atom. As, I also love chemistry I also find that students know matter what age have a reluctance when you mention this word. The story I give my students is that if you look at what you are wearing, what you are drinking or eatting, what you text and talk with and basically everything around you it has a chemical story. Sometimes, we must allow the student to become aware that chemistry is a natural part of our life. Terminology can come second and if we allow the students to explore, first, I think their stories about chemistry will change. I would give inquiry stories about how paper towels or baby diapers absorb and challenge the students to design a better story on improving them. Reading the comments from today I enjoyed Keith's story and I understand the concern in Mattie's story. The challenge as teacher is to bridge these two stories for effective teaching for all.
