Registration Open for 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.

Science on Saturday is a free event. Registration can be found at sos.truman.edu and will 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.
