Science Corner - Balancing Act

In this hands-on science class, young scientists will dive into the world of measurement by creating their very own balance scale! Using everyday materials, kids will learn how to measure and compare the weight of different objects. We'll explore concepts like balance, weight, and comparison, turning abstract ideas into tangible experiences. This class is perfect for curious minds eager to understand how the world works through fun and interactive experimentation.

Supply List:

• Clothes hanger with notches
• 2 paper cups
• Kitchen twine or string
• Single hole punch
• Scissors
• A variety of small items to weigh (e.g., coins, buttons, small toys, erasers, etc.)

Note to parents: Parents are responsible for keeping their children safe. While parents are not permitted to actively be on camera and participate in class, parents are always welcome to be nearby to support learners. During Science Corner, it's requested that parents stay with young learners to help them through each experiment. Also, note that while each class is scheduled for 25 minutes, Science Corner classes may end early depending on how quickly learners move through the experiments.
