Tuesdays: HOME SCHOOL SCIENCE
|
Home School Science engages young scientists in theme-based, hands-on science exploration. During each workshop, we explore one aspect of a scientific topic through discussion, exposure to vocabulary, and hands-on experiments/explorations. Each topic is covered over multiple weeks, allowing for extended exploration, more involved projects, and the opportunity for more student-led exploration.
Tuesdays, 10am to 11:15am (age 4.5 to 7.5) Advanced registration is required. The Kiddie Science Lab is located at 509 Rogers Avenue, near the corner of Midwood. |

Botany and Ecology We explore the science of plants, flowers, and trees as we work to establish the Lab garden. We learn about local ecology and explore the importance of pollinators in our food system. The Human Body Our bodies are amazing! Join us as we explore the uniqueness of fingerprints and how our heart works. We explore x-rays and body systems and compare our anatomy to that of other living things. |
General Weekly Workshop Agenda - Free exploration of Lab materials & Living Lab care (while students arrive) - Welcome & Introduction of topic, Group Discussion - Experiment(s)/Exploration - Clean-up & Closing Discussion When time allows, parents and caregivers will be invited to join in on the last ten minutes of class so students can share and present what they have learned. In some instances, adults may be invited to participate in a short science activity related to what we are exploring. |
