Saving Worms??
Students at Westdale Middle School in Ms. Chocklin’s 6th Grade Physical
Science Class are “thinking like a scientist”. These Jr. Scientists put
their minds together in a cooperative inquiry lab entitled Saving Sam.
During this activity, students were assigned the task of saving Sam the
Worm, who is sitting on top of a capsized boat with his life preserver
floating underneath. The problem is…Sam the Worm cannot swim!
Materials given to the students included: One gummy worm; one gummy
Life Saver preserver; one plastic cup and 4 paper clips. Students were
only allowed to use paper clips to touch Sam the Worm, the boat (plastic
cup) and the Life Saver. Students could not use their hands to touch Sam
and strategically communicated and worked together to keep Sam the
Worm from drowning! Students used the scientific method to develop a

hypothesis, create a data table with illustrations, analyze data, and draw
conclusions about what method worked best. Students also had great
time!
