Science Fiction
by Liz LaRosa
My goal
was to read the novel
"I, Robot" by Isaac Asimov with my 6th graders. We read 3
chapters of the book together and they really enjoyed the stories and activities
that I wrote with the help of fellow science teachers T. Trimpe and S.
Baker.
If anyone has any ideas, please feel free to send them my way!
