5. The design of Family Science Night is totally dependent on the goal of the event It can be participatory, student demonstrations, or even a one-person “show” I have organized one-person shows and participation Family Science Nights

9. This type of Family Science Night is somewhat hands-on
11. Birds of Prey are extremely popular because kids (of all ages) love to see living animals
12. In alternate years Family Science Night consists of an evening of discrepant events The evening opens with a soda/mentos demonstration in the cafeteria!
13. This kind of Family Science Night is my favorite because it is all hands-on
14. A discrepant event is one where the result is the opposite of what was expected The result contradicts the expectation of the observer
15. The concept is to encourage FAMILIES to attend, all the kids, the neighbor’s kids, the grandparents, even bring the dog, the turtle, whatever!
16. Students act as facilitators, and encourage attendees to actively participate Each participant is asked to use the POE principle before engaging in the discrepant event POE=Predict, Observe, and Explain
17. Students must be in good academic standing (no Ds or Fs) to be a facilitator Students work in teams of two All students are encouraged to attend. Bonus points are awarded
18. The student facilitators must become completely familiar with their discrepant event I select and test the events in advance Students are involved somewhat in the decision as to which event they facilitate
19. Snacks can be sold to raise funds for science club or student council
20. Students are carefully instructed in all safety aspects of their event They are also made aware they are “teachers” for this event and NOT demonstrators
21. Any event that has any potential safety hazards, has a teacher assigned to the student team
22. There is no similarity between a traditional science fair and family science night Family Science Night is all about involvement of the families
23. If your school currently is not hosting a family science night or science fair, you may face some resistance from your colleagues if you pursue such an event
24.
25. I hook the kids on discrepant events with “Discrepant Event Friday” Each Friday, I spend 5-10 minutes at the end of class demonstrating a discrepant event Let’s look at some examples of discrepant events
26. A hair dryer and ping-pong ball demonstrates Bernoulli’s principle Can we make the demo more impressive?
27. Hydrophobic “magic sand” is always a big hit with students Production of carbon dioxide gas and its effect on fire
48. There are several variations of Family Science Night you can host You can have more of a “science fair” theme You could team up with other schools and have a event You can hire an organization to come in and perform various demos
