Chemistry Demo Field Trips

Enhance Chemistry for Your Students! Make chemistry come alive for your fifth and sixth grade students through a series of highly visual chemical demonstrations at this exciting program.

We are incredibly excited to offer the 2024 Chemistry Demonstrations this Spring at ÃÛÌÒapp!

You and your 5th and 6th grade students are invited to join the dynamic Chemistry and Biochemistry faculty, led by Professor Emeritus Larry Louters, for one of these eight, FREE sessions. Each 75-minutes session is filled with the flashes and bangs of chemical reactions along with age-appropriate explanations of the science behind the reaction.

Join us in the Gezon Auditorium as Faculty members from the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry engage students in several chemical experiments and explain the science behind the demonstrations at a level that upper elementary students understand. Our program offers a great opportunity to blend your classroom chemistry curriculum with a visual translation of these chemical concepts, leaving students with a greater understand of "how chemistry works" and a desire to learn more about the science.

Professor Louters is one of ÃÛÌÒapp's most-beloved professors and presented at ÃÛÌÒapp's high-profile with the talk "Demonstrating the Wonders of Chemistry: Discovering God's Majesty in the Minuscule". Professor Louters earned ÃÛÌÒapp's and the . He was also recognized as one of ÌýHis love for the field of chemistry is passed on to the upcoming generations of scientists and scholars through the annual "Chem Demos" program.Ìý

    Student Comments on our Program

    "The experiments you did for us were amazing!"

    "I really liked it when you set the rag and methane bubbles on fire. That was the best field trip of the year!"

    "I'm really into chemistry now!"

    "My friends and I had a great time with the exploding balloons, glowing tubes, and fire."

    "My favorite part was when you turned the fire all different colors."

    "Thank you for letting me go on stage; the whole thing was cool!"

    "I didn't know that things can burn but not REALLY be burned because of how chemistry works..."
