Kids in grades 3-5...have some science fun this summer! In Friday Science Club with PISEC, you and CU student mentors will have fun with hands-on physics experiments! Design your own experiments, work through a game board to earn prizes, record experiments in your own science notebook, and make a poster to hang in the Lafayette Library and share with our community!

About the Research
This program is run by physics educators at CU Boulder, and we are currently conducting research to document the impacts of the program and ultimately improve science education for students in Colorado and nationwide. Participation in this study is optional and your child's participation in the summer program will not be impacted by whether you opt in to the research study. We would greatly appreciate your contribution to this important research!

About PISEC 
Partnerships for Informal Science Education in the Community (PISEC) is a partnership-based outreach program run by JILA and the Physics Department at CU Boulder. We connect CU student volunteers with local K-12 students to engage in fun science experiments and aim to cultivate interest in science and help youth participants develop a sense of themselves as a scientist.
