Space Engineers, Robots, and Energy Explorers! (Entering Grades 1-2)

Do you like watching lightning storms? Wonder why birds don't get shocked when they sit on power lines? In this electrifying class students will learn about different forms of energy while investigating hands-on the science of windmills, solar panels, electromagnets, and motors. Students will have fun as they investigate what astronauts have to know, what equipment they take into space, touch real space food, launch their egg-a-nauts and make their own model space crafts and participate in some cool rocket races.

Student must bring their own snacks and beverages. For this course, your point of contact is Program Manager, Jorge Thompson at (915) 747-6907 and jwthompson@utep.edu.
