Introduction

 The pictures of what we did.

More pictures

We'll have 5 stations so we'll divide into 5 groups.

Group 1: First, second and third graders. (4)

Group 2: Fourth graders. (6)

Group 3: Fifth Graders. (5)

Group 4: Sixth Graders. (5)

Group 5: Seventh and eighth graders (7)

 

Each group will start at the station with their group number,

then we will rotate to the next consecutive station at the end

of each 25 minutes.

 

9:15 - 9:40 Session 1

9:40 - 10:05 Session 2

10:05 - 10:30 Campus Tour

10:30 - 10:55 Session 3

10:55 - 11:20 Session 4

11:20 - 12:00 Lunch in the physics lab.

12:00 - 12:20 Session 5

12:20 - 12:40 Session 6

12:40 - 1:00 Wrap up: Q & A

 

In Session 6 we'll then entertain together the question of how many students we can lift with a leaf blower, then carry out the experiment to test our hypothesis.

Finally, we'll wrap up with a question and answer session here in the physics lab.

We hope you enjoy your visit.

And remember our battle cry,

 

Question Everything !
