the zombie apocalypse one is good, takes many weeks to work through.
STEM club here next week will be burning Marhmallows, Jelly Babies, Glace Cherries etc to heat test tubes of water, calculating the energy released, comparing to the information on the packets and discussing where the difference will have come from
We did this with peanuts at school back in the 80s, but too many allergies these days

https://gratnellslearningrooms.com/field-in-a-tray/ Is good this time of year too and was shown at a conference. Kids can make mini-quadrats with straw, celotape, pipe cleaner, etc.

Thanks for the ideas, really good stuff.
@prepAdmin would it be worth collating these links and having some sort of "bank" or pinned topic that people can keep contributing to expand?

We do have an extensive directory of links here: https://www.preproom.org/preproom-directory/
Also if you search "science club" *search titles only* there are hundreds of posts and links on the subject.
If we pin a thread then people just start another one and it also clogs up the top of the boards.
I think the best thing to do is encourage members to do a quick search before starting a new topic as these boards have been open now for 9 years so pretty much every topic is already covered somewhere!

Ahh I didn't check the titles only, that's why it was all scattered and then decided to start this thread. Oh well, bit of extra spam never killed anyone.
every topic? really? What about if I wanted to know about, say, cats with lime helmets on? Surely no one could have covered those?I think the best thing to do is encourage members to do a quick search before starting a new topic as these boards have been open now for 9 years so pretty much every topic is already covered somewhere!
Have you checked the Search Titles Only box?
I just get these posts, you should start a new thread.
I should start a thread with a title "Search Titles Only Box"
