If you have a lab you love, but it doesn't fully align with the scientific practice of "planning and carrying out scientific investigations," don't despair. You can easily turn that carefully crafted verification lab into a powerful scientific inquiry lesson. In this session on teaching scientific inquiry teachers will learn multiple methods for converting their "canned labs" into inquiry labs. Teachers should bring their favorite "cookbook" laboratory documents so they can immediately begin work on transforming these activities into authentic investigative opportunities for students. Multiple methods of converting labs will be addressed.
