Nanotechnology: Nanoscale
by Terri Schilling
This lesson on nanotechnology for 4th and 5th graders introduces students to the concept of scale by exploring the incredibly small measurements used in nanotechnology. Through engaging activities, students visualize and compare different units of measurement, from meters to nanometers, using rulers, string, and magnifying glasses. Real-world examples and interactive discussions help students understand the practical applications of nanotechnology. This hands-on, visually oriented approach ensures students grasp the abstract concept of nanoscale and its significance in modern science and technology.
