Getting Excited About Science II

BIG 7 ' Video Screen Connected to Live on Stage Cameras - This allows large groups to see every detail of the show.

Rocket Car - showing Newton's third law of motion in a very exciting way.

18 Foot Swing Lever -  This allows a student to lift a teacher 4 to 6 feet into the air while teaching about mechanical advantage.

Giant Pendulum with steel ball - A daring experiment with a 4 foot pendulum and a student helper

Centrifugal Force problem - designed to promote scientific guesses and lots of fun. This ends with swinging water over a student.

Sound Travels - A set of experiments, can be customized for grade levels using tuning forks, spring drums, singing rods, bell in a vacuum and ends with making a sonic boom with a bull whip!

Iron in Cereal - How can you see the iron in Cereal? Why is iron important to our bodies?

Acid - Base Students learn and Acids and Bases and see many color changes of different solutions. The students then get to predict what new solutions are: acids or bases.

Balloons and Marshmallows - Using a vacuum with bell jar, we make marshmallows look like baseballs and then look like raisins.

Airplane wings and balls - The designs of airplane wings and air pressure using a large 4 foot airplane wing.

Egg in bottle - A classic problem and big hit with kids and teachers.

Air Bag Challenge - Great problem and follow up to segment on airplane wings

The Fire Triangle - This is for Middle - Jr. High students. It teaches the fire triangle (Oxygen, Fuel, Heat) and ends with a safely conducted grain elevator type fire.

Where is the Pump? - This creates a siphon water fountain and is a study in the concepts of volume and pressure.

Hot air Balloons to Cryo Cannon - A problem in buoyancy that leads to discussion about heat and gases. This ends the show with a loud BANG from a liquid nitrogen cannon and confetti shot in the air.
