Dr. Sparks小小科學家俱樂部為您推出：達爾文俱樂部29：玩轉空氣動力！加入我們解開速度和阻力之謎。您是否曾經想過是什麼使事物變慢，以及如何使它們變得更快呢？讓我們深入探討迷人的空氣動力學世界。

​

在這個活動中，我們將進行阻力實驗，探討空氣和水對物體運動的影響。首先，我們將使用液體阻力室，把阻力加到最大來讓物體在水中減慢移動速度。接著，我們將阻力最小化來創造一個空氣動力學物體。這正是空氣動力學的精髓 - 了解空氣如何流經物體。

​

Dr. Sparks特別設計了一個專業的風洞，用於收集有關空氣如何與各種形狀相互作用的數據。預測、收集數據並進行實驗，以打造最具空氣動力學的物體。學生們都將有機會觀察他們創造的物體周圍的空氣流動。

「達爾文俱樂部」25以上的內容，引入更具挑戰性的主題，適合正在學習英語的小學生參與。我們使用多媒體示範和動手實驗，讓孩子們用手和眼睛來理解那些較艱深的內容。我們的老師將引導小小科學家們透過示範、圖示和動手實驗，把學習變成一場刺激的冒險！

Dr. Sparks Jr. Scientist Club presents Darwin Club 29: Exploring Aerodynamics!  Join us in solving the mysteries of speed and drag. Have you ever wondered what slows things down and how to make them go faster? Let's dive into the fascinating world of aerodynamics.

 

In this activity, we'll conduct drag experiments, investigating how air and water affects the movement of objects. Using a liquid drag chamber, we’ll start by maximizing drag to slow things down as they move through the water. Then, we'll then work on minimizing the drag and creating an aerodynamic object. This is the essence of aerodynamics – understanding how air flows over objects.

 

Dr. Sparks has engineered a specialized wind tunnel for data collection on how air interacts with various shapes. Predict, gather data, and experiment to craft the most aerodynamic object. Students will all get a chance to watch how air flows around the objects that they create. 

 

 Darwin Club 25 and up introduces more challenging themes for elementary school students, all designed for Taiwanese learners of English. Our activities are designed so that what your child doesn’t understand with their ears, they can understand with their hands and eyes, using our multimedia presentations and experiments. Our teachers lead young scientists through demonstrations, illustrations, and hands-on experiments, making learning a thrilling adventure!  

 

Dr. Sparks Jr. Scientist Club – English, Science, Fun!

​

Aerodynamics / Learning Objectives
* Understand Drag – Learn how air can slow an object down 
* Reduce Drag - How changing the shape of an object can increase or decrease drag.
* Aerodynamics – Understand how air moves around an object
* Experimentation -  Apply what you have observed to create the most aerodynamic model you can.


Experiments 
•    Liquid Drag Chamber – Slow It Down – Build objects with clay and other items to create an object that moves as slowly as possible while moving through water.
•    Liquid Drag Chamber – Speed Master – Transform your object into the most aerodynamic object that will speed through the liquid drag chamber
•    Wind Tunnel – Create a shape and test it in Dr. Sparks’ wind tunnel!

How exactly do things fly? This is the question that Dr. Sparks will explore with the junior scientists in Darwin Club 6 – Flight. We will experiment with the 4 major parts of flight - thrust, drag, lift, and gravity. Which balloon rocket will have the best thrust? Will certain balloon rockets go slower because of their drag? We’ve got fun, interactive experiments to test these questions out.

We will explore how air pressure is the force that lifts the wings of an airplane high into the sky. A series of experiments will explore Bernoulli’s Principle to help explain this. Finally, we will combine these principles into a really cool paper airplane experiment that the kids can take home to continue their experiments and collect data.

Conductors and Insulators
達爾文俱樂部 5
電力 1 - 導體與絕緣體

達爾文5主題是電力1—導體與絕緣體。我們日後會有一系列與電力相關的主題，這次是第一回合。我們會學到什麼是電路還有電流怎麼像水一樣的流動。我們也會一起探索為什麼有些叫做”導體”的東西可以讓電流流過，而另外也有些叫做”絕緣體”的東西會阻擋電流流過。


這次我們要示範以及動手操作的有趣實驗包括了：電漿球，建立電路與畫電路圖，識別導體與絕緣體…等。與往常一樣，除了課堂上精彩的活動之外，孩子們會有課堂上發的彩色教材書冊與實驗成品可以帶回家。當然Dr.Sparks也會告訴大家一些可以在家做的實驗來延伸課堂上的學習。


達爾文俱樂部適合的年紀是幼稚園到小學3年級(含以上)。參加的孩子必須是很習慣全英語交談的環境的。很多上全美幼稚園的小朋友，到了小學因為沒有使用英語而快速退步。達爾文俱樂部的活動提供有趣的英語環境，讓這些小朋友可以有目的的持續練習使用英文。我們的主題內容應該都是孩子們熟悉的。孩子們聽不懂的部分，應該都可以透過眼睛觀察與動手操作來了解。我們鼓勵家長一起參與，特別是年紀比較小的孩子，若有家長協助部分困難度比較高的實驗操作可以使活動進行更順利。

Darwin Club 5 is Electricity 1 – Conductors and Insulators. This is the first in a series about electricity. We will learn what a circuit is and how an electric current flows like water. We will explore how certain materials called conductors allow a current to flow through them, while other materials called insulators prevent currents from flowing through them.

This activity is packed full of interesting demonstrations and hands-on experiments, including a plasma lamp, building and drawing circuits, identifying conductors and insulators, and more! As always, the kids will go home with their full-color science notebooks, challenges to do at home, and take-home experiment items.

Darwin Club activities are for kids in kindergarten-grade 3+. Kids joining Darwin Club need to be comfortable in a whole-English environment. Many kids have a great start with their whole-English kindergarten programs, only to find that their English skills deteriorate quickly once they get into elementary school. These activities are a great way to help kids keep up their English in a fun and interesting environment once they start elementary school. Our themes are things that most kids should be familiar with. The parts that children don’t understand with their ears, they should be able to understand with their eyes and hands. Parents are encouraged to join with their kids, especially younger children to help do the experiments together.

Darwin Club 4 - Air Pressure
達爾文俱樂部 4 - 空氣壓力

活動簡介

新一季的達爾文俱樂部在3月即將推出~~ 新的主題是”空氣壓力”。在達爾文4-空氣壓力活動中，我們有一系列的示範與實驗來幫助孩子瞭解空氣中是充滿壓力的，時時刻刻都從四面八方推著我們的。了解到這點後，我們就可以操縱空氣中的壓力，玩一些相關有趣的實驗。由於我們總是有做不完的實驗，從這季開始達爾文活動時間將從70分鐘延長到80分鐘。(請注意費用也有稍微調漲)

達爾文俱樂部適合的年紀是幼稚園到小學3年級(含以上)。參加的孩子必須是很習慣全美語交談的環境的。很多上全美幼稚園的小朋友，到了小學因為沒有使用英語而快速退步。達爾文俱樂部的活動提供有趣的英語環境，讓這些小朋友可以有目的的持續練習使用英文。

Darwin Club 4 – Air Pressure

Activity Overview

Darwin Club 4 will be launching this March. Our new Darwin Club theme is Air Pressure. In Darwin 4 – Air Pressure, we have an exciting series of demonstrations and experiments to help kids understand that air pressure is all around us, pushing on us from every direction all the time. Once you are aware of this, you can start playing with and manipulating the air pressure that is around us. With so many experiments to do, we have extended the time of the activity from 70 minutes to 80 minutes. Please take note of our pricing change that comes with the longer activities.

 

Darwin Club activities are for kids in kindergarten-grade 3+. Kids joining Darwin Club need to be comfortable in a whole-English environment. Many kids have a great start with their whole-English kindergarten programs, only to find that their English skills deteriorate quickly once they get into elementary school. These activities are a great way to help kids keep up their English in a fun and interesting environment once they start elementary school.

 

Darwin Club 4 – Air Pressure

Learning Objectives 

  • Introduction to Air Pressure

  • Explore How Air Pressure Affects Us

  • Experiment with Changing Air Pressure

  • Observe Changes in Air Pressure
