Elementary Chemistry Workshops
pH Phactor
Kids slide down the colorful pH scale and dip into the world of acids and bases! They explore pH extremes and discover whether liquids found in their homes are acids or bases using pH paper! Major Concepts: acids and bases, pH
Mix It Up
Children shake up solutions and make mixtures with common household elements. They learn about the different types of mixtures and how to separate solutions. Children explore filtering technology and follow a color-changing experiment to see how useful suspensions can be. Children also try out the tools and techniques of mixture sorting. Major Concepts: Mixtures and Solutions
Lab Works
Kids experience what it's like to be real Mad Scientists in this whirlwind class on how a lab works! They learn to manipulate laboratory equipment and practice using it. Major Concepts: lab equipment usage and terminology
Junior Reactors
Children create a tiny world of atoms! They learn to recognize chemical reactions and mix up a few reactive ingredients for some sensations results. Major Concepts: chemical reactions
Slime Time
Kids ooze into a gooey hour of sliming around! They create slime using the Mad Science recipe and test its properties in the Slime Olympics! They get to take home their own concoction of Mad Science Slime! Major Concepts: polymers, testing different combinations of materials, cross-links.
Chem in a Flash
Children hop on board the chemistry express for a high-speed science experience! They perform instantaneous experiments in this fast-paced class about split-second reactions that go like mad! Major Concepts: Chemical reactions
Super Sticky Stuff
Kids stick it to the walls and push the power of tape to the limits in this hour-long class on things that cling! They build a bond with glue and learn about the properties of different adhesives! Major Concepts: adhesives, fair test
Che-mystery
Children discover the mysterious wonders of chemical science. They learn the difference between physical and chemical changes through exciting, hands-on experiments. Major Concepts: Physical vs. chemical change, pH, chemical reactions
Dry Ice Capades
Students manipulate matter in all of its three states! They watch metal become a liquid using boiling water and see water become a solid as it comes into contact with dry ice. Coolest of all, they get to learn about dry ice's ability to sublimate - go straight from a solid to a gas! Major Concepts: states of matter, carbon dioxide
