Featured: Participants are divided into teams of 3 to 4. Teams are challenged to design and build a vehicle using LEGO® pieces to travel the greatest distance using only gravity to propel…
LEGO® Millyard Program
Through a mystery model build, scavenger hunt and discussion, participants are encouraged to think about resource use and management historically and today. Featured: Students build a mystery model using instructions. The models they build can be found in the SEE Science Center’s acclaimed LEGO® Millyard Project. Students work together to find their models and discover…
Chemical Reaction Lab
Through hands on chemistry in a lab setting, participants discover, experience and identify chemical reactions Featured: Students participate in one group demo, then conduct four different hands-on experiments for themselves in small groups. Participants use lab equipment and are given the opportunity to gain confidence and familiarity in a lab environment. Students are often surprised…
Slimy Lab
Students engage in an introductory lab experience and make silly putty. Featured: Students get their hands deep into science when they combine two liquid substances and create their own silly putty to take home. Participants are encouraged to get a little messy and to think about the different ways they can work to change the…
