Mad Science can enhance your science programme with inquiry-based workshops that meet national curriculum requirements!
Structured as an in-class field trip, a Mad Science workshop is a convenient way to offer students a hands-on science experience without leaving the school.
With professional lesson plans, unique equipment and animated instructors, Mad Science workshops offer primary schoolchildren truly engaging learning experiences.
Teachers are provided with a Workshop Activity Guide, which contains suggested activities for you to do with your class before and after the Workshop to introduce and reinforce the concepts and terms presented in the lesson. All children receive a science model at the end of each workshop that they can take home - usually a model they have constructed themselves in the workshop.
