Chemistry is Magic

A recent edition of the Mizzou alumni magazine (Go Tigers!) pointed me to the Magic of Chemistry^TM, a ten-year-old science program for girls that began at the University of Missouri. This hands-on chemistry workshop lets junior Girl Scouts (4^th to 6^th graders) visit different chemistry stations and complete experiments on topics such as polymers and pH. If you are part of the Girl Scouts-Heart of Missouri Council, the next workshop takes place on March 15, 2008. Not in Missouri? Check out this page if you are interested in Starting Your Own Program.
