Description:

Join us for DBMS Afterschool Myth Busters! Can you really sink in quicksand? Do goldfish actually have a three-second memory? Is it true that lightning never strikes the same place twice? Students will become junior scientists and investigators, using experiments, observations, and critical thinking to put popular myths, legends, and "fun facts" to the test. Each week, participants will explore a new myth or mystery, make predictions and form hypotheses, conduct hands-on experiments & analyze results to find out what’s fact—and what’s fiction. This program builds curiosity, scientific thinking, and teamwork, all while having tons of fun busting (or confirming!) everyday myths. Are you ready to separate science from stories? Let’s bust some myths together!

Available spots: more than 5

Price: $110.00 Taxes waived
