AKA Science Classes and Workshops
AKA Science Classes
班级信息
AKA Science (All Kids Are Scientists) is a fun, hands-on science program for students in grades K-6. A different topic is offered during most school quarters (fall, winter & spring), and 9 total topics rotate on a 3-year cycle. For each topic, there’s a version for students in grades K-3 and a version for students in grades 4-6.
AKA科学包包括：
• Curriculum (structured as eight 1-hour lessons, with some flexibility to be extended or condensed)
• A full kit of supplies for up to 15 students (except water and scissors, which each site provides), and
• Training of a Class Leader to facilitate the class. Each site recruits, screens, selects, and supervises its own Class Leader. Class Leaders don’t need a background in science, but prior experience working with school-aged children is recommended.
Upcoming Classes: Fun Physics Series!

“这是学生最喜欢的课程。他们喜欢实验，了解正在发生的事情，并将材料带回家展示他们的家人和朋友！”
“动手！这是AKA科学计划的最佳部分。科学概念通过实用，有趣和实用的方式分解成可理解的信息花絮。我将在未来教授任何AKA科学课程：培训很棒，年轻人期待着课堂，每个人都会走开去学习新的东西。”
