Kindergarten student Zane Pizzica blows bubbles in a “Bubble Trouble” session during a March visit by Carnegie Science Center employees.

Students at Heritage Elementary in Murrysville recently had a visit from Carnegie Science Center instructors, who brought the center’s “Science on the Road” programming to the school.

Each classroom was able to participate in science hands-on during the programs. Kindergarten experienced “Bubble Trouble,” first graders created “Chemical Concoctions,” second grade students learned to “Build It – Break It,” third graders did a little “Chemistry in a Bag,” fourth grade students underwent an engineering challenge, and fifth graders learned about rockets.

The Heritage PTO secured grant funding to coordinate the programming.
