Science on the Move

Thanks for another wonderful year of visits! Wishing all a enjoyable summer and looking forward to more STEM fun next year :)!

Great visit with Mrs. Bowen and the 4th grade team at Crawfordville Elementary School today. The students did an excellent job drawing together ideas about heat to explain why objects feel hot or cold!

Fun visit with Mrs. Kolke and the 3rd grade team at DeSoto Trail Elementary School. The students did an excellent job making observations and using evidence to back up their claim that they observed a chemical change.

Making rainbows and model hurricanes with Ms. Karen at Cornerstone Learning Community today. The students did an excellent job exploring refraction, reflection and convection!

Having fun reflecting on lenses and mirrors with Mrs. DiLorenzo and the 5th grade team at Medart Elementary yesterday. The students did an excellent job drawing ray diagrams and figuring out how to make rainbows!

Making graphs with motion sensors at Killearn Lakes Elementary with Mrs. Wilson and the 5th grade team! The students did a great job figuring out what motions to use to recreate some challenging position-time graphs.

Busy day at Medart Elementary using microscopes to explore with Mrs. Whitelock and the Kindergarten students and thinking about fractions and density with Mrs. DiLorenzo and the 5th grade students. The students did a fantastic job being scientists and mathematicians!

More fun with Dr. Wing and the AMS students from FSU teaching elementary students about baroclinic instability and what causes the weather.

Having fun with Dr. Wing and the AMS students from FSU, teaching elementary school students about what causes storms at mid-latitudes.

Great visit with Mrs. Cornais and her classes at Raa Middle School today. The students did an excellent job using evidence to back up their claim that they observed a chemical change!

Lovely visit with Mrs. McCune and her science classes at Spring Creek Middle School today! The students did a great job recreating position-time graphs by walking in front of the motion sensor!

Having fun at the Math Stars day at TSMS!

Wonderful reactions at Gilchrist Elementary with Mrs. Bottini and the 4th grade team. The students did an excellent job making observations and sharing evidence for their claim that they observed a chemical change.

Some more pictures from our fun visit to W.T. Moore Elementary!

Great visit with Mrs. Engelbrecht and the 2nd grade team at W.T. Moore Elementary today. The students did an excellent job making predictions about what the inside of a hurricane looks like and observing a simple model of a hurricane in a tank.

Having fun with levers at FSU Physics Open House!

Great visit with Ms. Long and the 5th graders at Chaires Elementary. The students did an excellent job thinking about experimental design for rocket launches!

Come see us at Physics Open House, this Saturday (3/25) from 10-4!

Had so much fun representing the Office of STEM Teaching Activities at FSU Capitol day, we forgot to get a picture of all the cool sea critters Sea-to-See brought and the fun physics toys from Science on the Move!

Wishing you a Happy Spring Break!

SciGirls Summer Camps - MagLab SciGirls Summer Camps are one-week or two-week hands-on summer camps that inspires middle school girls to pursue careers in science by involving them in various fields of science with professionals who are working in STEM.

Great visit with Mrs. Whitney and the 5th grade team at DeSoto Trail Elementary School today. The students did an excellent job launching rockets and thinking about experimental design!

Fun visit with Ms. McFarland and the 3rd grade team at Hartsfield Elementary today! The students did an excellent job making predictions, observations and explanations for the melting blocks.

Having fun at Maglab Open House and getting to think about levers, science and more with our friends from Sea-to-See and Saturday at the Sea!

Excited to be participating in Maglab Open House this Saturday (2/25) from 10-3. Hope to see you there!

Happy Holidays from Science on the Move! Wishing you a wonderful Winter Break and we look forward to more STEM adventures with you in 2023!

Setting records on rocket launches with some new rocket caps at Killearn Lakes Elementary! Thanks to Mrs. Wilson and the 5th grade team for supporting the students as they did an excellent job collecting data and thinking about experimental design.

Wonderful visits with Ms. Rhodes and the 2nd grade team at Oak Ridge Elementary this week! The students did a great job making predictions, observations, and inferences about bugs under a microscope!

Great visit with Mrs. Walker and the 4th grade team at Hawks Rise Elementary today. The students did an excellent job analyzing a chemical change by drawing on their knowledge of properties of matter!

Great reactions with Mr. Cottingham and the 5th grade team at Hawks Rise Elementary school. The students did an excellent job using evidence to back up their claim that they observed a chemical change.

Happy Thanksgiving from Science on the Move!

More sinking and floating fun at the Bond Elementary STEM day. The first and second grade students did an excellent job making predictions and observations!

Fun day testing whether objects will sink or float at Bond Elementary. Extra kudos to the Kindergarten classes for practicing how to record their data in a table!

Great visit with Ms. Meyers and the 5th grade team at Shadeville Elementary today. The students did an excellent job considering experimental design in our rocket-based investigation, 3-2-1 Blast Off!

More excited reactions and chemical changes with Mrs. Hance and the 5th grade team at Fort Braden Elementary today! The students did a fabulous job observing which properties changed and explaining how they knew there was a chemical change.
