5^th Science - Castle

Electricity and Magnetism: We will explore magnetism this week. Performing a series of investigations, we will figure out if we can insulate against magnetism and determine how strong magnets really are.

6^th Science - Enchanted Forest

Ocean currents You will continue your study of ocean currents. Through a series of hands-on experiments and demos, you will figure out just how things move in the ocean and more importantly... WHY? Does it matter where trash is dumped? What does temperature and salinity have to do with anything? What exactly powers up the Gulf Stream and how does it affect you? These are some of the questions you will answer this week.
