Overview of Content Areas!
The Great Calorie Race:
This fun team game teaches that overall health is directly related to the calories we consume and the calories we burn. While they laugh, run, work together and use math skills they learn healthier options.
Food Chain Hopscotch and Hip Hop Scotch:
The Food Chain is a complex balance of life that we must understand and respect because we depend on each to survive. This game uses the food chain to actively involve all ages!
Element Concentration:
This game uses the elements on the periodic table and their relationship to everyday things kids use and see around them. Players race to match elements like hydrogen, sodium, silicon and clorine... and just like atoms...kids never stop moving while playing this game!
Observation Obsession:
Scientists use keen observation skills to find all the pieces to a puzzle before they can make a new discovery or solve a complex problem. Players race to find specific objects to earn puzzle pieces. The Chief Scientist leads the game from the Observation Tower. The first team to put all the pieces together wins!
Transformers:
Kids learn that energy TRANSFORMS! Through rigorous activities in a tag-like game, players transform themselves from solar energy to thermal energy to mechanical energy to electrical energy. To win, players must remain as solar energy or transform other players.
The FORCE:
Force is any push or pull on an object and is used in most everything we do. In an incredibly fast moving game, players use different balls to learn how differnt force applied has different outcomes!
