Mad Scientist Party

While schools around the city are gearing down, the students at 
Global Treehouse are entering a world of discovery! 

The Mad Scientist's Party is a tradition here, but first, scan your hand for admission! Only those who have successfully completed science studies are allowed in the laboratory.

Congratulations! You have full access...your name will forever be written in our archives.
After donning their lab coats and protective eye wear the experiments begin.
Too often we deny students their sense of touch - an intricate part of learning, in an experiment we refer to it as the conclusion!
Ewwww! Elephant toothpaste?! Awesome.
The question - "I wonder "
the hypothesis - "I think"
the materials -"I need "
the conclusion -"I learned"
the result -"what happened?"
Let's jump to the result : they had a great time exploring the world of SCIENCE.

A child's wonder will propel him/her into a world of discovery, a life of possibilities.
And isn't it interesting how math seems to creep into every corner of the day? Measurement takes on new application.
Forget application! Watch this! Add an Alka Seltzer! It will be a lava light with great globs of colored oil swirling around ("that's because the water has more density than the oil...just in case you don't know")
Young scientists ALWAYS take it one step further. Art makes an entrance too, finding out what color you get when you mix colors.

Really?! There's a chemical reaction when you pour orange soda over vanilla ice cream? Ah yeah....just check out their smiles.
Cha ching! Success!
