Another Idea for the Plan

So yesterday in class I had an interesting idea. I thought it might be cool to step up tanks in the class room that display the different parts of the water cycle.  For example, have a jar, cup, or tank of water with a mark at the top of the water line, as I start to explain the water cycle turn a heat lamp on it so that when I am done explaining I can show that the water level has dropped due to evaporation, like wise I can try to simulate condensation and precipitation. Just a thought though-something extra to help get the point across!

The plan

So, after some debate I've decided how to present the water cycle to a group of elementary students. We are going to make homemade place mats.  Each students will be given there own 'kit' contain the main piece of paper and small cut-out pieces of the cycle.  As I go through and explain each step the students will be able to color it however they want, and will glue them in the right order showing how the different components relate to each other. After the students are finished their mats will be laminated so they can take it home and explain it to their families.

Now that I've got my plan I have to find my graphics and smooth out my lecture. I have one class already set up, however, in order to meet my hours goal I'll need to find one more class to present to. If anyone has any contacts let me know, I'd greatly appreciate it! :)
