I am currently trying to develop a curriculum for an after-school program at
the Louisville Science Center that must correlate with science standards.
In doing so I have encountered the following questions/problems:

How do you transform core content and science standards into a hands-on
inquiry based activity?  Can inquiry be used on all standards?  How do you
deal with time constrictions?  How many materials is too many?  Is it ever
OK to tell students the answers to their questions?

I would be interested to hear how other Science Centers are dealing with
these questions.
