By the time the Iron Science Teacher competition was over, Allan Wade Geery, a science teacher at Norfork Elementary School in Norfork, AR, had witnessed some unconventional, yet effective ways to use fruit to teach science.During the competition, oranges became conductors for electricity, berries were used to tie-dye t-shirts, and a lemon cake was baked in a glass cup using electrified spoons.

The Arkansas Discovery Network, funded by the Donald W. Reynolds Foundation, chose Geery and seven other Arkansas educators to participate in the renowned, four-week Teacher Institute at the Exploratorium museum this summer.Iron Science competitions were just one of the wild, sometimes wacky, but always-interesting experiments, competitions and lessons that Geery experienced during the training he received in San Francisco.

Besides being interviewed on television and quoted in the San Francisco Chronicle, the participating teachers experienced a rich mix of hands-on activities to invigorate their classroom lessons.They have come back to Arkansas with new ways to make science more involving for students, using activities and materials that cost very little - certainly a boon to any school budget.In all, Geery spent a total of 110 hours over the four weeks immersed in inquiry learning techniques.

Geery teaches 4th through 6th grade science at Norfolk Elementary School, and has been teaching elementary and middle school science for 12 years.He is looking forward to sharing what he has learned with his students and fellow teachers.

NORFORK -- For the second year in a row, the Citizens for Clean Water has donated funds to Norfork Schools for the purchase of scientific equipment and materials to be used in the study of area surface water.

"Last year, the donation was used to replace an obsolete pH meter, and this year's donation will allow for the purchase of reagent refills for the school chloride and phosphates water sampling titration kits," according to Wade Geery, Norfork elementary science teacher.

"Our data indicate what good water quality we have in this area and serve as a benchmark for future evaluations of water quality deterioration as our area becomes more urbanized," Geery stated.
