The Museum of Science and Industry:
The MSI has a lot of tools for teaching and learning. It has develop many interesting activities about the basic principles of Physic, Chemistry and science. It's very useful for everybody interested in Science. Teachers and students can develop their own program doing things that they can perform in the school.
I was impressed by the development of the tornado, avalanche, tsunami and the tabloid of the chemistry elements. You can try by your own changing the different elements and making a compound.
The knowlegde that students can take from the museum is huge. They will get a better understanding of the phenomena itself and how it's produced.
My suggestion for this activity to student is to provide them the keywords, a previous explanation about the main phenomena and then to answer a sheet with some questions, just to know if they have a clear understanding or not.
What phenomena is it ?
How is it produced?
Describe it.
Why do you think it happens?
Tell me an example of a recent phenomena.
Answering this questions they'll realize if they understand it or not.
The teacher should take advantage of this.
