SUMMARY:Savoring Science: From Sun to Supper with Photosynthesis
DESCRIPTION:Savoring Science is a hands-on workshop for curious young scientists to explore concepts that make up the food we love. In this month’s workshop\, we’ll learn how energy from the sun powers every bite of food we eat. Designed for elementary school students\, this workshop connects science and snacks through the concept of photosynthesis—how plants convert sunlight into food—and follows the energy journey through the food chain. \nYouth will observe how light affects plants\, sequence the journey from sun to supper\, explore oxygen bubbles in a photosynthesis-in-a-jar demo\, and sort snacks based on whether they come directly from plants or through animals. We’ll conclude with a creative art activity where students draw their own sun-powered meals and reflect on how food is connected to nature and energy. \nThis program makes energy science fun\, relatable\, and interactive—perfect for young learners exploring the world around (and inside!) them—part of the Savoring Science monthly workshop series at the Chesapeake Children’s Museum. \nRegister here.   https://www.theccm.org/event-details/savoring-science-from-sun-to-supper-with-photosynthesis \n

SUMMARY:Brownie & Junior Robotics
DESCRIPTION:Girl Scout Brownies and Juniors will learn about robots and programming while building a prototype with easily accessible materials. We will use software to explore robotic programming. Then\, the Scouts will showcase their creations to fellow roboticists for feedback. \nAdditional Information: \nSpace in the classroom is limited\, so we can only allow 1 adult in the classroom per group. That adult must be in the classroom at all times. \nAdmission to the exhibits is included for the scouts. Reduced admission can be purchased (day of the workshop) for any adults or family members who would like to visit the exhibits outside of the workshop. \nBadges are not included. They must be purchased from your organization.
