Total Time: 1 hour

• Introduction (10 Minutes) We introduce who we are, lead a fun classroom warm up, followed by a classroom discussion about the topic we will be covering with the experiment. Generally this involves lots of question asking and encourages students to use their imaginations
• Experiment (40 Minutes) Edventure More staff lead students through an experiment or activity, encouraging question-asking and discussion throughout the process. Students are generally asked to hypothesize what they believe might happen and then compare their findings with the ultimate result.
• Wrap Up (10 Minutes) Students review key points about the topic and are encouraged to come up with more real world applications of what they learned. Every student takes home a “Give me MORE!” sheet that summarizes the day’s activities and list resources where they can learn more about the topic.
