WINTER/SPRING 2019
Weird and Wonderful: Life in Water, Land, and Air... and in Outer Space?
In this long session (20 weeks!) we'll explore how living things have adapted to live and thrive in the water, on land, and in the air.
Through activities, experiments and conversations, we'll explore lots of topics, such as:
O life in a drop of water and the challenges that living things face in a liquid environment;
O what happened when animals and plants appeared on land, where gravity could crush them and air dessicate them;
O how some animals took off and conquered the air, defeating gravity, and how humans also managed to fly with mechanical wings.
Through this journey, we'll jump from biology to physics to chemistry and back, answering all the questions that kids could possibly have!
Of course, because this is Kids Talk Science, we'll make some glorious videos to explain what we learned.

About the Program
O How do we teach at KTS?
Each session, we tackle a different science topic through hands-on activities, demonstrations, experiments, and videos. Then the kids find the most fun way of explaining it to the world.
In Kids Talk Science, storytelling takes center stage. There’s a role for everybody and room for every personality.
To learn more, watch the kids' productions! And check out our blog to see what we do class by class.
O Who is it for?
Kids Talk Science is open to children 7 and up who are interested in science and storytelling in any of its forms. We have two age groups: 7-8 and 9-11 year olds. No prior science knowledge is necessary. Check our schedule for different class options.
O When does it run?
Classes run three times a week from 3:00 to 5:00 pm. Kids have snack and play from 3:00 to 3:30 pm and then do activities until 5:00 pm. An extended day option is available until 6:00 pm at a cost of $10 per Check out our schedule to find a class that suits you.
O What do we provide?
Light, healthy snacks and water, plus some extra snacks when there's an activity related to food (which happens often!) But ravenous kids should bring extra food.
