DescriptionBack to top

Kitchen Chemistry   Cooking is chemistry in action.  Discover the chemistry behind common kitchen goods, such as candy and soda pop, through hands on laboratory activities.  Combine ingredients, reagents and catalysts and apply heat to create chemical reactions you can eat.

It's a Bug's Life   From the wetlands to the city to the river, find out what it takes to live a bug's life.  Prepare yourself, though, things might get a little dirty.

Crime Scene Investigator   Ever wonder what it takes to be a detective?  Join our investigative team and scientifically analyze clues, examine evidence, and draw conclusions to solve mysteries just like the pros!  Visit a real police station and discover what happens to criminals once they are behind bars.

Jurassic Journey   Explore the exciting and mysterious world of these wonderful creatures.  Learn how paleontologists work and identify their discoveries.  Learn what we don't know about these creatures.

Totally Ballistic!   Good ol' Newton said, "What goes up, must come down."  That's an understatement for Totally Ballistic.  Launch rockets, candle kites, cannons and tennis ball mortars in this exciting class, and safely walk away with the knowledge of backyard ballistics.

Wild Weather Wonders  After learning some basics about our weather we will dive into "wild weather" such as thunderstorms, tornadoes, blizzards, hurricanes, etc.

Robotics   Use your imagination to construct robots of your wildest dreams.  Have your mind twisted as you design and build robots to face a variety of challenges.  Single and team bot challenges will encourage individual and team problem solving skills.
