Join me as we travel across continents exploring the diversity of animal life on our planet. Discover fascinating animals and their environments as we learn about different species and their habitats, adaptations and skills. 

In this session, science will be made more relatable and personable to students as they learn about famous scientists/engineers that have made outstanding contributions.  As students participate in engaging, hands-on activities related to each scientist or engineer, they will build a personal understanding of each important discovery. We hope that our students will also be able to recognize their own character traits that will lead them to success in their future careers.   

Students will explore and utilize the scientific method as they: (Example Activities)
