  1. Science And Scouting

  2. Science Riddle What do elephants use to brush their teeth?

  3. Answer: Why Elephant toothpaste, of course!!

  4. What Makes Science Fun for Kids: • Hands-on activities • Kids want to be active problem solvers. • Magical-like investigations make kids go "WOW!" • Easy to understand investigations • Information related to their age level. • Anything kids can make happen themselves. • Investigations that really work. • Using "around the house" materials so they can redo the experiments at home.

  5. Science and Tigers Tips: • Encourage them to find their own answers to questions • Let them learn to see patterns in the world • Starting to learn concepts beyond what they can explore concretely, such as living things being made up of small parts. • Science explorations include water and weather, the parts of the human body, and identifying characteristics of plants and animals.

  6. Associated Tiger Advancement • Achievment #5- Let's Go Outdoors • Elective #30- Plant a Seed • Elective #31- Learn About Animals • Elective #34- Conservation • Elective #42- Fun at the Zoo • Elective #43- Pet Care • Elective #47- Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

  7. Science and Wolves/Bears Tips: • Ask boys to make predictions and find patterns • Learning about Earth and its natural resources • Deeper study of the life cycles of plants and animals. • Make smart guesses about their observations.

  8. Associated Wolf/Bear Advancement Wolf: • Achievement #7- Your Living World • Elective #8- Machine Power • Elective #13- Birds • Elective #15- Grow Something • Elective #19- Fishing Bear: • Achievement #5- Sharing Your World With Wildlife Achievement #6- Take Care of Your Planet • Elective #1- Space • Elective #2- Weather • Elective #3- Radio • Elective #4- Electricity • Elective #12- Nature Crafts • Elective #15- Water and Soil Conservation

  9. Science and Webelos • Study complex systems in a complex manner. • Learn about hypotheses, make predictions, observe, and experiment to gather data and draw conclusions. • Apply the basic math and science skills • Topics may include matter and its different states, forms of energy, the solar system, processes of living things (like photosynthesis and digestion), Earth’s atmosphere and weather, the water cycle, and classifying matter.

  10. Associated Webelos Advancement • Scientist Activity Badge • Forester Activity Badge • Geologist Activity Badge • Naturalist Activity Badge

  11. The Scientific Method • Make Observations • Do Some Research • Form a Hypothesis • Test Your Hypothesis • And Draw Conclusions

  12. Other Science Advancement Belt Loops & Pins: • Astronomy Academics Pin and Belt Loop • Geology Academics Pin and Belt Loop • Science Academics Pin and Belt Loop • Weather Academics Pin and Belt Loop • Wildlife Conservation Academics Pin and Belt Loop Awards: • Cub Scout World Conservation Award
