Here we are, learning about scientific concepts in small groups. There is enough time for everyone to ask questions and run trial and error investigations.
Learning science through ’doing’ is the best way! This is not always possible in the classroom. At The Little Science Society we make sure there is a way of solving a problem by trying a number of different methods and learning from our mistakes.
Most importantly, children grow confidence in making mistakes, giving wrong answers….they are becoming true scientists by exploring and not guessing or following suggestions.
I’m very proud of all my little scientists 🥹❤️

What is a chemical reaction? How is it different from physical reaction? Is it exothermic or endothermic? How do reactants differ from products? How can we change the outcome?…. All these questions can be easily answered by performing the experiment.
And no matter the age or the scientific knowledge- you can investigate! The Little Science Society classes and workshops provide an opportunity for you and your child to experience scientific inquiry 🔬🔭🧪👩🏼‍🔬. Come along and experience the real science, and relate it to every day life 👩🏼‍🔬❤️

22/05/2024

Hello, something I have to share with you… I recently suffered a foot injury and it looks like I will be out of action for few weeks 🦶🩼
All classes, clubs and workshops are canceled this and next week. I will be contacting all booked attendees individually within next couple of days.
I will also be scheduling Term 6, so it should be available for booking in couple of days. Keep an eye for announcements 👀
See you all very soon 👩🏼‍🔬❤️

03/05/2024

This week at The Little Science Society we carried out all sorts of inventions to do with HYDROGELS.
Fake snow, wall paper glue, water beads etc.
However, we investigated absorbency of hydrogels this week!!! And perhaps we should have shared the results with the main UK nappy brands producers 😉
It has been the best inquiry so far……
……next one is temperature change!
I look forward to introducing young scientists to International System of Units as well as thermometers, taking readings and ENDOTHERMIC REACTIONS 🤒 🧪👩🏼‍🔬❤️❤️❤️

We had a great investigation at the Westmeads School science club today 🔥 we researched efficiency of different fuels, and concluded that candles are not best if you want to boil water for a cup of tea 😉👩🏻‍🔬🧑🏼‍🔬👩🏼‍🔬🧑🏻‍🔬👍

23/04/2024

This Saturday from 10:15 🧪🔬⚗️
This workshop will focus on answering questions through scientific inquiry.
We will carry out 3 investigations:
• pH of substances
• osmosis
• Hydro-gels
Children together with grown-ups will have a chance to experience hands-on activities across different fields of science. We’ll focus on methods, variables, risk assessment and conclusions.

15/04/2024

Term 5 starts on Friday
This term we will practice investigative skills across different Science disciplines 🔍🔬🧪
Head to https://bookwhen.com/thelittlesciencesociety for timetable and to secure your place. ❤️👩🏼‍🔬

Allowing children to investigate is so important to science because in science, the acceptance or rejection of a scientific idea depends upon the evidence relevant to it — not upon dogma, popular opinion, or tradition.

At The Little Science Society we teach facts, not opinions!

We deliver after-school science clubs at Westmeads School and St Alphege school for year 1&2 in Whitstable

We provide science education for home-schooled children and (we start in May - keep an eye on announcements 👀)

We run monthly Saturday workshops

We provide One-to-one Science tuition for GCSE (single, double, triple across all examination boards) and A-level Biology students

I look forward to hearing from you
👩🏼‍🔬❤️

My daughter and I went to see Spectacular Science Show by Mark Thompson at the Gulbenkian Canterbury. I really loved sitting in the audience and watching for a change 😉 It was really good!
Hope you’re all having lovely Easter break. I’ve been planning Term 5 Science Adventures for The Little Science Society Clubs Classes and Workshops.
The booking schedule is open, so go ahead and secure your space. 🧪🥼🔬🔭
See you all week after next 👩🏼‍🔬❤️

SCIENCE AT HOME 🧑‍🍳➡️👩‍🔬 ON-LINE INTERACTIVE SCIENCE COURSE starts NOVEMBER 15th 🤩 These at-home science experiments for children explore scientific concepts through engaging stories. Children will be able to see how science applies to their daily lives.

These experiments are mostly designed for preschoolers through primary schoolers.

Imagine making things fizz, or change colours, or reveal hidden messages with just a few simple mixtures.

It is NOT magic. It's all science that you can do with your budding scientists at home, with ingredients you already have in your house.



TOPICS:

Lesson 1: 'THIRSTY ROBOT MYSTERY' - mixing different liquids

Lesson 2: 'WHO STOLE THE SALT?' - mixing solids and liquids

Lesson 3:. 'THE FOAM MOUNTAIN' - creating foaming chemical reactions

Lesson 4: 'BALLOON PARTY' - filling up balloons without blowing into it

Lesson 5: 'CLOUDY SKIES' - creating a simple water cycle, cloud and rain in the jar.
