Bucks County
students entering second through sixth grade are invited to register and attend
GSK Science in the Summer™. This free, fun experiment-oriented course is taught
by certified teachers to groups of 16 students in two age groups: children
entering second and third grades (Level I), and children entering fourth
through sixth grades (Level II). GSK Science in the Summer™ is sponsored by GSK
in partnership with The Franklin Institute and local libraries.

Course Description:

GSK Science in the Summer™
program will teach Bucks County students about Physical Science and
Electricity, answering questions such as: “How do magnets work?” “What is a
magnetic force field?” and “What makes electricity?” Students will make a
compass and an electromagnet, and will use an electrostatic generator. This
course teaches about magnetism, static electricity, electrical currents and
circuits. Discover why it’s a hair-raising experience!
