Mixing chemicals with some senior students was a great way to wrap up this season of workshops.
With moving to Wānaka, I will have to put hands-on science workshops on pause for a little while. However, I am still available online. If you need an online tutor or questions about science education, please get in touch with me at [email protected]
Next week, we will be zooming in on the microscopic world. Will I see you there?

Fun fact: When looking through a microscope, we can discover so many creatures and structures that are too small to look at with our eyes.

Refeshing myself on first aid today. Safety will always be a priority at Sci Spark Studio.
I will prepare for the worst and aim for the best.
Fun fact: Bridges are often made of triangles and arches because these shapes are great for preventing all the force pushing on only one point.
If you have a more senior student, we will be doing a workshop focussed on light and ray diagrams on Monday. Perhaps I'll see you there?

Because the heart dissection went so well, I'm thinking of doing another dossection next term. What could we dissect next?
Fun fact: Light travels slower on earth than in space and even slower in water.

Exciting new device arrived in the mail this week. Looking forward to using this to explore light with some of the senior students on the 31st.
