Truman to Host Math and Science Event for Kids

 
Elementary and middle school students interested in math and science can spend a day on the Truman campus participating in fun activities.

Truman’s chapter of Beta Beta Beta, a co-ed biology honors fraternity, will sponsor Science on Saturday, April 29. The first session, for students in first through fifth grade, will take place from 9-11 a.m. A second session, for students in sixth through eighth grade, will take place from 12:30-3 p.m.

Area students will attend classes in Magruder Hall, each lasting about 20 minutes. Session one classes this spring include: acids and bases volcano, reptiles and amphibians, and secret message writing. Among the classes in session two are: strawberry DNA extraction, lava lamps, and reptiles and amphibians.

Registration will begin March 31 on sos.truman.edu and remain open until April 14 or until both sessions are full. Spaces are limited and registration is completed on a first-come, first-served basis.

Beta Beta Beta has sponsored Science on Saturday events for several years. More information is available online at sos.truman.edu.
