WHAT TO EXPECT

Science kids can see, touch, test, and remember.

Mr. Rich transforms your classroom into a live laboratory. Students observe, question, test, and discover through memorable demonstrations and hands-on activities.

Planning for several classes or grade levels? Ask about multiple workshops during one visit. Share the science topic or Tennessee standard you are teaching, and Mr. Rich will help you choose a program that reinforces it.

BUILT FOR TENNESSEE CLASSROOMS

Science standards brought to life.

Tennessee's current K–8 science standards combine grade-level content with science and engineering practices. Super Science workshops reinforce those big ideas through live observation, investigation, building, testing, and discovery.
