Playground Science at the Fleet Science Center
This Playground Science workshop supports K-5 educators in promoting science learning through playground equipment and physical play activities. Experiments and investigations in this workshop will be based around Pause|Play, the Fleet Science Center’s newest exhibition that puts a science spin on popular playground equipment and recreation activities.
Playgrounds can be ideal places to ignite scientific curiosity and creativity in children. They serve as physical hands-on environments for experiencing and exploring complex science concepts through embodied play. Engaging in play activities, such as running, jumping, sliding and swinging, to explore scientific concepts requires children to use all their senses and cognitive abilities. – New York Hall of Science
Educators will use their experience in the exhibition space to develop their own science activities specific to the type of playground available to them at their school.
