Thinking like a scientist: the scientific method: Teach students to think like scientists with this colorful, kid-friendly introduction to the scientific methodScience tools for lab and life! #1: Learn how the same lab tools students use in class are used in a variety of careers from construction to chef to doctorProperties of matter, part 1: Come join us in the "matter kitchen" as we learn that our entire world is made of matter, including things we don't see, such as the air we breathe. We learn to use our five senses to identify the properties of an object -- size, weight, shape, color, and temperatureProperties of matter, part 2: liquids, solids and gases: Learn that all matter has mass and takes up space, use the five senses to discover the properties of matter, and see how matter changes formSimple machines: Students learn to identify real-world examples of simple machines including the lever, pulley, wedge, wheel and axle, inclined plane, and screwHow things move: Roll, slide, bounce, and spin. Discover many different ways objects can move. Students get a preliminary lesson in physical science with this fun program designed to get them thinking about pushes and pullsThe magic of magnetism: Students discover what a magnet is, the properties of magnets, magnetic fields, and the types of objects that are attracted to magnets. They also learn what magnets are used for and in which simple machines they are found
