Science doesn’t have to be hard. Here’s a nice example to prove that:

Try Geocaching
Join the world’s largest treasure hunt. It takes you places you never knew existed!
There are millions of smart containers called geocaches hidden in almost every country on earth, just waiting to be found. There are probably some close to you right now.
If you want to try, you can try either Geocaching, a slightly simpler app in the free version or Cachly, a slightly more advanced app for some euros.
Magnifying Glass in the Ipad
Are you out in the forest and want to look closer on something. Try to use an magnifying app on your Ipad. With eMagnifier can you even save photos from what you looked at.
Where am I?
Try to see if the children are able to locate themselves out of a picture. Try GeoGuesser that will present you a photo from GoogleMaps and the n you have to guess as close as possible.
Look Inside the Body
With The Human Body app are you able to together look at the human body, hear the heart beat, the intestines gargle…
There is also an additional manual to download for more in depth explanations.
Maps
Ipad has a good map app already installed.
Interesting ”to play with” is that you can get the app to ”fly over” a city and show how it looks. However, this only applies to larger cities.
If the children have been travelling, it can be fun to see where it is and how it looks.
Keep in mind that the time to go there says more than the distance in kilometers for the children.
Place the Skeleton in the Classroom
The Human Anatomy Atlas app can let you set a skeleton in the middle of the classroom and then dress it muscles, tendons and c.
Then one can go really close to studying some detail of the body in depth.
