The St. Louis Science Center's School and Community Partnership Department is hosting an Engineer's Week experience for St. Louis 5th to 9th graders during February 19-22, 2008, from 9 am til 11:30 am. We would like to invite you and your schools to participate with us during this national event. The timing will be appropriate as we celebrate National Engineers Week in general during this period. Furthermore, the weekend of February 23-24 will be highlighted by the annual Missouri Society of Professional Engineers (MSPE) sponsored exhibition at the Science Center.The event will be held at the Science Center's Taylor Community Science Resource Center, 4900 Manchester (SW corner of Manchester and Kingshighway). Below are the main goals of the event, and things we would love to have your students experience while joining us for the week.

Program Concept and Objectives

The overall objectives are to help students better understand and recognize the academic and career opportunities available within the various disciplines. The Engineer's Week program's goals are to:

1. Provide students with concrete experiences related specifically to engineering careers that might otherwise seem unrelated to their current academic studies and everyday experiences.

Family Science Nights are fun for everyone!

Submitted by Missy on Wed, 05/16/2007 - 2:35pm. YES | Family Science Night | Parent Advisory Board | Special Events

Last month's Famiy Science Night was rained out (April showers!); however, March's Family Science Night was a huge success, bringing YES teens and their families out for an evening filled with magical science fun!  We explored John Zuman's fanstastic curriculum, MAGIC!.  YES teens and families participated in a number of cool activities that explored the science behind those magic tricks we see in shows and on t.v.  We are taking a break during May, but expect the next Family Science Night in June!  Details are forthcoming!  Hope to see you there (weather permitting, of course!).

YES teens work at Missouri Botanical Garden's Earth Day Celebration

Submitted by Missy on Wed, 05/16/2007 - 2:29pm. YES | City Science | Special Events
City Science YES teens worked with over 75 kids and their families at the Missouri Botanical Garden's Earth Day celebration.  Teens demonstrated wind power and solar power by making windmills and solar powered sketch robots with visitors.  Teens explained to kids and their families how solar panels work and why they are better for the environment.  It was a great way for teens to conclude this semester, and gave them a chance to disseminate their STEM knowledge to other youth!  Way to go City Science YES teens!
