To all!  I've left a message here before but unfortunately to no avail nobody 
has replied and the topic is important to me.  My question concerned Science 
and Tehnology in the Primary classroom. On my last practicum (I'm a final 
year student at Sydney University) I did a program on Electricity.  Due to 
the lak of time available we only got as far as doing closed circuits and 
inserting switches. Many children later went on, on their own, to making 
parallel and series circuits, others added motors to theirs etc.  However, 
where could I go from here?  Next year I'm going to be in the classroom and I 
need to know WHAT NEXT?  Please help!!  Please reply!! I really need help!   
ALSO, I noticed a genuine interest by many girls in the classroom which is 
contrary to any findings, here in Australia.  Could my experience be a one 
off or could the many theories and findings concerning Girls and Science and 
Technology in the Curriculum be true?  Hope to hear from you soon!
Regards Penny...
