Do-it-Yourself Science Kits
Future Scientists and Engineers of America (FSEA) offers a series of fun, educational do-it-yourself science kits that develop a passion and outlines a pathway for science and engineering practices and careers.
This all-inclusive, turn-key program comes complete with in-depth step-by-step instructions and all of the hands-on materials needed for 24 students. Educators and program leaders can mix and match the kits to design a multi-day, multi-week, or yearlong program that can even align with the National or State Science Content Standards and Engineering Practices.
Floating & Sinking
Discover why some objects float and others sink during a series of colorful and playful experiments. Students will make a take-home a density test tube and compete in a foil boat competition.
