Explore the Force: The Science of Star Wars (Grades 4-6)
“I am one with the Force, the Force is with me.” In an hour, we will take on some of the science behind the movies – experimenting with forces and motion, using angles of incidence and refraction to track a laser, and wrapping up with following lightning on its path to the ground. This STEAM-based exploration takes us from the deserts of Tatooine to the planet-wide city of Coruscant. Once we have the skills needed to navigate the galaxy, we will gain the rank of Jedi Knight.
