My Project
Beaker Creatures are little creatures from distant planets that have crash-landed on Earth and are looking for homes where they can share their love of science and discovery!
Beaker Creatures rely on the classic scientific principles of observation and classification.
No two Beaker Creatures are alike, and our junior Beaker Creature scientists (my students) must use close observations to classify each new creature they discover! In addition, each family of Beaker Creatures comes with its own set of educational fun facts and quizzes directly related to its species!
Each time a Beaker Creature is released from a Reactor Pod, it involves a science experiment in which acids and bases react to produce a gas – carbon dioxide. For example, an experiment called “Alien Slime Time” teaches the science of slime. Other experiments include color mixing, whirlpools, volcanoes, and various fun science concepts, all of which are hands-on.
