Today kids watched the Chiquita Banana commercial from the 40's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFDOI24RRAE. They watched the video once and tried to write down as many banana facts that they could. We watched it one more time and wrote down more facts. We then discussed how doing things over again you gain more knowledge and understanding of what you are doing.
We then started a "Going Bananas" Experiment. Groups received a banana and has to measure the mass, measure the length in cm, check for buoyancy, and the peel it and do the same thing to the peel and the pulp.
Wednesday: we will be creating another bar graph of information which will be calculated in class from data collected.
