A "shout out" for summer science

  • Education and Outreach
 

People who read my blog entries and comments on others know about my great concern for science education.

I've even posted a few blog brags about my children's science books and my school visits. But this blog entry brags about work that my son is involved in.

My son has been an elementary science specialist at several different schools since 1993. He will be starting a new position this fall at the Canton (OH) Country Day School. But he also keeps busy during the summer with the innovative Sciensational Workshops for Kids. From what he's told me, the kids get a week long camp-like experience where they discover what science really is, first hand by doing.

The program is expanding, perhaps to your area, and I'm glad to give them a "shout out."

So visit the Sciensational Workshops for Kids website, and tell them you heard about it from me at Science Blog.
