Join us for some fun with the sky, and complete a badge at
the same time! This 2.5-hour workshop will provide Juniors with the
knowledge, materials, and encouragement to complete their Space
Science badge. In this inquiry-based workshop, Juniors will build on
their space science knowledge by:
* Making hypotheses about the solar system
* Testing their hypotheses in creating a solar system scale model
* Learning that a year on Earth may not be the same as a year on other planets
* Creating their own way of measuring distances
* Completing a heat shield experiment
* Learning about fellow women space scientists while seeing the sky in a planetarium show
By the end of this two-and-a-half hour workshop, Junior girl scouts will have completed and receive their Space Science Investigator Badge. Cost of the badge is included in this program.
Cost: $20 per Girl Scout, $8 per Adult
This is not a drop off program - an adult or affiliated troop leader must be registered with your Girl Scout or troop. This event takes place at the Treworgy Planetarium in Mystic, CT.
