REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY 2015-2016 Curious. Confident. Inspired. Three initiatives to empower every young person These three words capture the of today—an integrated program that begins early in life and provides science engagement to use science in shaping a better future: at each stage, as children grow and develop.

Curious: Every crib holds a scientist. We encourage parents, caregivers, and teachers to help children—starting at birth—to explore the world and discover the amazing science and technology that surround us 24/7, whether in our kitchens, our cars, our schools, or right outside our doors. EARLY LEARNING FAMILIES Confident: When children do it, they call it “play”—when adults do it, they call it “research.” As The needs of children differ profoundly at each children blossom in their elementary years, their curiosity knows no bounds. By reinforcing their EXPLORERS developmental stage, so we design our exhibits CONTENTS questions and sharing in their discoveries, adults can build children’s confidence that they are and programs carefully to maximize learning at practicing science every day as they explore their expanding world.

Story Time programs for children 4 and sponsor under. Activities might include hearing the story Hand, Hand, Finger, Thumb by Al Perkins and making thumb print animals. In the past year, programs in the Curiosity Corner have drawn 1,094 children. Parent-Child Workshops We offer Science Together for parents and caregivers and their young children. These recurring programs shared science skills and hands-on activities with 436 adults and 443 children in 2015. Such activities empower parents to work with their children as young scientists by making observations using their senses, making predictions, categorizing, and experimenting. Children might mix vinegar and color with baking soda to learn about texture and color mixing. Family Engagement Workshops Sciencenter leads family engagement workshops for Head Start and Early Head Start families. These workshops are held once each month in the community and once each month at the Sciencenter. In 2015, 578 children and their caregivers participated in hands-on workshops to help develop science process skills. Activities include building towers, rolling different kinds of balls dipped in paint to observe the patterns, and using straws to blow different materials.
