Below is the preliminary agenda for Lincoln Eliot Virtual Science Week
Do-It-Yourself Science Kits: April 5-9
DIY science kits will be available for pick up, generously provided by Merck. We will have a variety of kits to choose, appropriate for all grades (K-5). Need a science project kit? Request one in the form above! Deadline for requests is March 19.
Science Activity Night: Wednesday, April 14
Activities will include a hands-on workshop on how to make the world’s best paper airplane and the science behind it! This session will be taught by a Lincoln-Eliot parent, who is a pilot. There will also be other activities, such as “Ask a Scientist”, featuring local scientists.
Student Project Night: Thursday, April 15
Students at all levels are invited to present the projects in supervised breakout rooms. We will also be providing an online platform for students to post their projects, which will allow the school community to view all of the projects. More details to come!
Past projects have included investigations/experiments (e.g. How fast do apples rot?, What do dogs remember?), models/demonstrations (e.g. the Solar System, Lemon battery), research reports (e.g. Marie Curie, Snails), and collections (e.g. Slime). Google is an excellent place to look for ideas — for example: https://www.
We welcome projects at all levels and abilities! Feel free to work in teams! And even if your student is not doing a project, we encourage everyone to pick up a DIY science kit, participate in the activities/workshops, and view their classmates’ projects online. We look forward to celebrating our young scientists together!
