THE SCIENCE OF ROLLER SKATING
Students will learn about the parts of a roller skate and how each part functions to make the skate. They will discuss how surfaces in the rink are made of different materials and how that affects the skate in motion. Students will have a chance to showcase their creativity and design a new feature for a skate.
Topics: Geometry, Friction, Reverse Engineering, Design, & Motion.
LIGHTS, SOUNDS, & SKATING
Students will learn that both sound and light can travel in waves. They will discover the different types of lights we use in the skating rink, and learn what makes sound in a skating rink.
Topics: Frequency, Waves, & Vibrations
FORCE & MOTION
Students will learn basic physics as they discuss the forces in play when they roller skate. They will see how gravity and friction impact a skater in motion.
Topics: Gravity, Friction, & Motion
ROCKS & ROLLER SKATING
Students will investigate roller rink materials and classify them based on hardness, color, and texture. They will apply skills that are used for rocks & minerals to make observations about the different parts of a skate.
Topics: Moh’s Hardness Scale, Luster, Rocks, Minerals, & Texture
MUSIC & LIGHTING
Students will learn about how light and sound travel. They will learn the exciting effects of light with the use of reflection and refraction. They will discuss the different speakers used in a skating rink, and how they work together to make music.
Topics: Refraction, Waves, Reflection, & Frequency
ARCADE & CIRCUITS
Students will learn about the science, math, and engineering of arcade games at the rink. They will measure their reaction time, calculate the probability of simple games and create an electric circuit.
Topic: Reaction Time, Probability, Engineering Through Game Design, & Electric Circuits
Science of Health, Fitness, & Skating
Students will learn about the functions of the cardiovascular system and about leading a healthy lifestyle. They will make predictions and then calculate their average heart rate through physical activity.
Topics: Cardiovascular System, Heart Health, Importance of Exercise
NEWTON ON ROLLER SKATES
Students will learn that each one of Newton’s Three Laws of Motion are present in the skating rink. The will experiment with force and mass and discuss the importance of physics and roller skating.
Topics: Physics, Laws of Motion, & Inertia
Teachers and parents can skate for FREE.
