Science On The Go
Science
Preschool Children’s Family Festivals Summer Camp
Science on the Go assemblies incorporate a 32-foot visual display with both live and preserved specimens for a unique hands-on learning science experience. Schools may select from 17 different science topics, and may schedule up to five one-hour presentations per school day for as many as 100 students per presentation session. Hands-on display collections and activities are part of every assembly. Programs are ideal for:
Library Shows
Preschool Shows
Elementary School Assembly Programs
Our programs are carefully crafted to ensure that science comes alive for every participant. Presentations are tailored appropriately for each grade level, ensuring that both the science curriculum and the vocabulary used follow grade level standards. Presentations incorporate all modalities of learning, calling on students to use their visual, auditory, and kinesthetic skills.
Since inception, Science on the Go has presented thousands of science programs at hundreds of public and private schools across Orange, Los Angeles, San Bernardino, and Riverside counties. We have also served public libraries with our programs since 2007; and in 2012, we expanded our program offerings to include sessions tailored for public libraries, youth groups and municipal parks and recreation programs.
Shows Include:
Animals All Around: A brief look at all animal groups and characteristics.
Web of Life: We explore the relationship of plants and animals, along with their needs and uses.
Life Cycles: We compare the metamorphic process of both insects and amphibians, looking at the characteristics of each animal group.
Animal Adaptations: We discover the adaptability of birds, identify the characteristics and specific body structures, dissect owl pellets, and explore food sources.
Owl Pellet Dissection: We look at at birds and their structures, identify the adaptability of owls, dissect owl pellets, and explore a dichotomous chart.
In Your Back Yard: Living On The Urban Edge: We examine the wide variety of native animals living in our neighborhoods, discover their diurnal or nocturnal habits, and learn about their habitats. From spiders to insects, amphibians and reptiles to many of the local mammals. This is a program for the entire family, a discovery for all to enjoy!
Which Foot Is It: A PAWS for Reading Program: The “Which Foot Is It?” public library program teaches children about animal adaptations and characteristics of different animal groups. We explore the characteristics of animal feet and how their structure helps the animal survive in its unique habitat.
