Events › STEMosphere: Physics in Action

STEMosphere: Physics in Action introduces 5th - 8th grade students to the world of physics through hands-on experiments and real-world applications. Each session will explore key physics concepts like motion, energy, and force, while also touching on chemistry, engineering, and computer science. Fun, interactive lessons will spark curiosity and help students see the science behind everyday life! This 3-part series is taught by an accomplished High School student.

Session 1: Balloon-Powered Cars: Exploring Motion and Force
In this session, students will design and test their own balloon-powered cars while learning about Newton’s Laws of Motion. They’ll explore how force creates movement and how factors like the size of the balloon and the angle of the car affect speed and direction. Students will connect physics concepts to real-world applications of force and motion.

Statement from teacher:

With over 130 hours of tutoring experience in STEM subjects, I have developed a strong ability to help students grasp complex concepts and excel in their coursework. My background includes advanced coursework in various STEM fields, providing a deep understanding of subjects ranging from mathematics to physics and computer science. I am passionate about fostering critical thinking and problem-solving skills in students, enabling them to build condense and succeed academically. My hands-on approach to tutoring has been shaped by practical experience and a genuine dedication to student success.

Come for one session, or come for all. Space is limited.
