Roller-Coasters
What could be more fun — and educational — than designing your own roller-coaster? In this hands-on program, students will build and test marble roller-coasters while exploring the science behind motion. As they experiment with track design, they’ll discover and learn how inertia, acceleration, and speed affect their coaster’s performance. Let the ride begin!

Electricity
Ready for hair-raising fun? In this engaging program, students will learn all about static electricity using a Van de Graaff generator. It's a powered-up scientific experience!
Air Pressure
Air is powerful! Students will use a Bernoulli blower and beach ball to explore how air pressure affects motion, then test their aim with air blasters to knock down cup towers and investigate the forces at work.
