Shows
 Super
Cool Science Show
This engaging show uses liquid nitrogen, props,
costumes, volunteers and audience imagination to
demonstrate that we are all scientists. Join in
as we discover a variety of surprising, super cool
experiments!
Volts
& Jolts
Get ready for hair-raising science with Volts
& Jolts! This interactive science show introduces
participants to many aspects of electricity, from
zip-zappy experiments to important everyday uses.
Ecosystems
Workshop
This hour-long workshop will have you peering
into the watery world of micro and macro invertebrates,
pondering fresh water ecosystems. Explore ideas
about how living things get their energy. It’s
a web of life!
• Explore compost
composition; what is soil made of? Hone your observation
skills as you use a hand lens and microscope to
solve the mystery.
• Create your own geology field guide
while you test rocks and minerals for hardness,
luster and mineral content.
• Help construct a landscape and test
variables of soil composition, deforestation and
water in your model. Learn what you can do to
combat the effects of erosion.
• Experience a series of hand-on inquiry
investigations, K-10. Activities illustrate students’
development of conceptual understanding using
AAAS benchmarks.
• Learn how your school or district
can access high quality materials and professional
development support for your classrooms.
• Find out more about your child’s
inquiry-based science curriculum and how you can
support and extend that learning at home!
Feeding
Frenzy
Imagine you're a hungry bird. What sort of beak
will let you catch the most food? Compete against
other hungry birds to find out. And may the best
beak win!
Construction
Instruction
Teams race the clock and each other to build giant
structures. And the builder is blindfolded! This
game will put your communication skills to the
test.
Respiration
Stations
It's a relay race of blood cells, ferrying oxygen
to oxygen-starved leg muscles. The team that makes
the leg jump the most times wins!
Make
A Mission
You don't have to be a rocket scientist to play
-- but it helps. Your mission is to equip and
launch a mission to planet Mercury. Choose your
equipment and launch vehicle wisely to prevent
your mission from becoming impossible.
Hair
Affair: Bringing to Life the Science of Hair
We care for it daily, but have you ever thought
about how it grows, why it falls out, what makes
it go curly and how products like hairspray work?
The Hair Affair: Bringing to Life the Science
of Hair has all the answer in talks and workshops
that make science a fun/learning experience.
