Girls'
Science Investigations: The Chemical World
SATURDAY, APRIL 14 - 9AM-2PM
SLOANE PHYSICS LABORATORY, 217
PROSPECT STREET
OPEN TO MIDDLE SCHOOL GIRLS
|
Did you know that you
can write with fire? Or that a chemical reaction can release the energy
in an ordinary Gummi Bear, creating an explosion? Chemical reactions
are all around us, even within your own body. In this session, we’ll
explore the nature of chemical reactions and how scientists use
chemicals in our everyday lives. Snacks and lunch will be served.
The mission of Girls’ Science Investigations (GSI) is to motivate,
empower, and interest girls in developing the skills they need to
pursue careers in science. This series occurs four times per year, each
with its own theme.
Registration required at http://gsi.yale.edu
