IBI Lab Reflection

I have never been a person who loves science. In fact it is my least favorite subject. I probably should not admit to that considering biology and chemistry are a big part of agriculture, but it's the truth. My dislike towards science started in high school and transitioned to college. My problem with science is that a simple thing like a hypothesis or a lab report are different with every educator you meet. I have learned well over ten different ways to write a hypothesis throughout my education. Because of the way I feel about science I find inquiry based learning difficult. It has made it hard for me as a student and a teacher to be engaged in this type of learning.

I failed at meeting inquiry based instruction in my lesson for this weeks lab. I did not meet the requirements because I tried to not make the lesson science centered or hard. I tried to make it fun. This is definitely something I need to work on. Science is my weakness, but is something I want to grow in. I want to be able to find a way to make science understandable and fun!
