 When I first heard the words nanoscale science and engineering I did not associate them with fun or having a good time I was wrong. It turns out that science is not only fun, but pretty cool We're trying to take kids of all ages and trying to train them to be scientists You know America has lost its edge the past decades in science So we want more scientists to come from this country So by doing events like this we're getting kids interested in science and the thing about science centers Is it's a lot different from the formal classroom learning because we can come out and bring Different things like we brought here today that normally classroom teachers don't have so it's a fun experience for the kids And they're actually learning at the same time which sometimes they don't realize it So it makes learning really fun. Steve was right not only did the kids have a lot of fun, but they learned a lot as well my favorite experiment was the Alka sensors or we put a crushed up at the center into the Tube and we poured water in it and it rose higher than the One that's just broken half nano means small That's the Greek word for dwarf It pretty much The smaller an item is it just reacts differently my favorite part was we had the Green and blue sand Then we had this thing and it was in the glass stuff And we had to pour it in there and get some then pour it on the green and it made it a little more darker Then we got some more then we put on the blue one and it made it like the little bubbles And you couldn't pop them The East Kentucky Science Center has several summer camps planned in June for more information on the camps Simply use one of the methods listed on your screen reporting from Prestonsburg for EKB news.
