Junior Makers: The Science of Moving
November 10th, 2017 | Caitlin Lombardo, Community Learning Specialist
Have you ever wondered how NASA landed men on the moon? What about the mechanics of a windmill? And how do airplanes stay in the air?
Each Wednesday in November we’ll explore these concepts hands on! We’ll talk about what it takes to land on the moon, build a spacecraft and test it out. There’s a variety of materials we’ve provided to work on your windmill and airplane. This workshop is a chance to explore the basics of physics. Kids will learn by building, troubleshooting and testing their handmade machines.
