1. SCIENCE EQUIPMENT 2009 - 2010 7th Grade Science created by P. Link
You can “hide” all the slides about “Uses” and show just photos JUST to show them how to “draw” in an easy way. Then have students look at equipment on the tables (rotating from item to item) - draw them and make predictions for uses.
