Huntington Takes the Sports Challenge!

Friday, May 8th, 2009

Over the past month or two, I have been instructing programs for Woodhull Intermediate School in Huntington New York. I had five Mathematica:Beyond Numbers and six Sports Challenges for their fifth and fourth grade classes respectively. Christine Amodeo, the School Media Specialist, has given me some really positive feedback from not only herself but all of the participating students. The students enjoyed the hands-on approach that all of our programs have to offer. As you can see in the picture below, even the visitors at the museum enjoy themselves during our Virtual Visits. I am really looking forward to hearing and seeing their post connection projects.Ill keep you updated on how they go!

Sports Challenge!

Tuesday, September 9th, 2008

Students explore the physical properties involved with athletic activity by engaging in table top experiments as well as interacting with a New York Hall of Science Explainer and exhibits. Investigate how different surfaces change how a ball bounces, the importance of muscle memory, center of gravity, and much more!
