Field Trip to The Science Spectrum!

A couple weeks ago, we took a field trip to the Science Spectrum! We look at things that were magnetic, watched the way different things moved, saw different kinds of fish and reptiles, played with toys and went to a pirate treasure exhibit! The kids had a blast! Our class was split into 2 groups, so I only have the pictures of my group at the moment.

Watching the fan move the sand around

watching what happens when a button is pushed to make vibrations
Seeing how rotating the fan makes the sand move in different ways



Making the legs move and spin the wheel


Listening to sound bounce off in different places




Making different colors in the light table

Watching the train


Just like NASA!


Flying their own jet!


Looking that the different kinds of shells

Climbing up the rock wall




Ahhh! A DINOSAUR!


Little paleontologists 

There were some cool fish!










Race car driver!



Don't get too dizzy!





Which ball will make it down faster?






Invisible parts in water ... the magic of science!



Making HUGE bubbles



Sand art





The music wall


Playing with pendulums



Making music on the xylophones



Seeing which hardware pieces were the most and lest magnetic

Air hockey










Looking at the alligator ... or crocodile, I don't remember which :)



searching for hidden treasure with metal detectors


Trying to hit the ships with the cannon




Making pirate coin rubbings on paper


Coloring pictures

Moving the underwater robot around


Where will the ball come out?

Using the air blowers to make the gears move faster and slower




Driving around!


Playing with the different water toys


Shopping in the grocery store

Reporting the news

Taking care of sick animals at the vet

Weighing and checking animals at the vet

Thank you to all of the parents that went! That was by far the biggest group I've had go on a field trip with us and I know the kids love it when you are able to come with us. Thank you for all that you do! :)
