Fun with Science Ciera Gaskins
MISSIONAs a program our
mission is to educate our participants
about science and having fun while
doing so.
GOALS & OBJECTIVES To educate
participants in science.
To create a fun way for participants to understand scientific activities.
Encourage the participants to use their imagination and challenge themeselves.
Have complete scientific knowledge about the activity.
Create activity such as Glow Cup and Oobleck.
While participants engage in their activity, we asked questions to gain knowledge on their thoughts and the conclusions they were creating at the time.
REFLECTION
As a group, we feel that our overall program went well. At first, time management was an issue but we
regrouped and reevaluated so we could fix our mistakes during the second
session. Both activities (glow cup and oobleck) had participants engaged as well as entertained. As a whole, we were fortunate to have such great
volunteers who helped with preperation along with supervision. In
the end, each group member was satisfied with the outcome of our first
program, “Fun with Science”.
