IMSA on Wheels is
a mobile science theater offered to elementary schools
throughout the Chicagoland area. IMSA on Wheels is an assembly-style show
for elementary students in grades three through five; it is designed
to spark student interest in science and encourage learning.. The current program is called "Science is Shocking" and features demonstrations on electricity and magnetism. The program is sponsored by a grant from 3M and BP. Similar to other Kids Institute programs, IMSA on Wheels is developed and taught by IMSA students with supervision from IMSA faculty and staff.
Downloadable and videostreaming clips from the DVDs are online HERE.
Text versions of many demonstrations from all four IMSA on Wheels
shows, plus some all-new experiments, can be found in the For
Kids section of the site.
