Can your students obtain Captain Newton’s treasure? Students will hear a story explaining the history of Science Island and then travel around the classroom to five stations. Each station presents a physical science challenge they need to solve to earn part of the combination to open their team’s treasure chest.  Stations include experiments with water density, mass, rock streaking, light reflection and launching projectiles with a table top catapult.
