Playground Homeschool Project

Our next field trip project is going to be a playground chart in order to determine the BEST local playground. So how is that school?

• Math - Goofy had great practice graphing.

• Physical Education – lots of exercise

• Social Studies – Exploring what makes up our community

• Socialization (school, right) – meeting new friends & playing together

• Science – We used the scientific method:

o Asking a Question? Which park is the best?

o Construct a Hypothesis? If a park has the most ‘good’ things it will be the best park

o Test Hypothesis by doing an experiment. Gather data from 20 parks in our area and evaluate how many ‘good’ things they had & how much the kids liked the park

o Analyze our data with a graph –

o Conclusion – Idea courtesy of:livinglifeintentionally.blogspot.com
