Science Club

Science Club is back with three sessions, meeting on Tuesdays or Wednesdays, October 1 through November 20.

We’re offering hands-on science adventures for students in grades two through five; first grade students may participate if anv older sibling is enrolled in Science Club AND an adult can volunteer to help everyday that the first grade student attends.

We meet from 3:35 until 4:45 PM in the LMC.

Session 1: Maps and Compasses (three weeks)

Go on a compass treasure hunt in Greens Park, explore the world in a compass

quest, and build a three dimensional topical map.

Session 2: Qualitative Chemistry - Mystery Powders (three weeks)

Discover how various substances behave chemically and physically, then use what

you’ve learned to figure out which substances are included in various mixtures.

Session 3: Fun With Physics (two weeks)

We’ll pose two building challenges that will test your imagination and engineering

skills.

Want to join in the fun? Then complete and return the registration form as soon as possible. Sessions can fill up very quickly. The number of students per session is dependent on the number of adult volunteers. To ensure that we’re able to provide a safe and enjoyable activity at least two

adults will be present each day. Any days that do not have at least one adult volunteer will be cancelled. Please consider signing up to help on one or more days as your schedule allows.
