Science

"Few things make a science teacher happier than hearing a child call an idea weird. If you speak fluent child (and a good science teacher does), weird doesn't mean what it usually means—odd, off-putting. It means interesting, mystifying and deeply, deeply cool." -Jeffrey Kluger

Join us as we explore science with weekly hands-on experiments and activities.  Applying the scientific method to increase our understanding of the world we live in.
