A rotating mix of experiments provides students with a great primer to physical science. This program highlights nontraditional role models and emphasizes studying science and working safely with chemicals. At the ScienceWorks construction site, use a crane to move a load of rocks, steer a mini-bulldozer through the work site and figure out the best way to build a wall. Students explore the forces of gravity and friction, and the principle of inertia with hands-on activities. Create clouds and experiment with air pressure and temperature.
Students also discuss the factors that cause weather condition changes.
