A traveling demonstration program that explores basic scientific principles using exciting interactive demonstrations.

Featured:

This program includes a variety of demonstrations which may include Combustion, Chemical Reactions, Observations, Polymers, Problem Solving, Optical Illusions, and recycling… some which go off with a bang!

Connections:

The presenter uses the demonstrations to introduce the students to NGSS cross cutting concepts.  Concepts include: cause and effect, energy and matter, structure and function, stability and change and the interdependence and influence of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math in our world.  Participants are introduced to the engineering process and can practice designing a solution to a problem.
