Hey Emily,

 

My name is Ethan Beck and I am a 4th year elementary education major. I think fun ways to keep students engaged is any sort of interactive game that students can play and learn science concepts. PBS kids games is a great source of science games that can get students invested and exposed to the content. If you are talking about older students you can have them watch a science fiction movie like interstellar and use a movie sheet from moviesheets.com. Then have a discussion about the movie and some parts that interested the students or questions that they had about the science. Hope this helps give you some ideas for lessons.

Best regards,

Ethan Beck
