Family Fun Science Night on Earth Day

For our first Family Fun Science Night, we set up five stations to rotate through: Slow moving slime, circuits using playdough and LEDs, Marshmallow structures, newspaper architecture and Moon Landing Engineering Challenge. 

Many families came and enjoyed spending the evening together with science.

Building cell models using modeling dough

Science students are working in small groups to research organelles and building a three dimensional cell model using modeling dough. We want to hook them up to the makeymakey to create an interactive display. The modeling dough is a bit stickier than we expected. We are using plastic and styrofoam containers because they won't be conductive.
