Roller Coasters - Grades 3 and 4

This free, hands-on STEM event takes place at 40 S. Alcaniz St. in Pensacola. Students in grades 3 and 4 are invited to join us as we learn the about the physics of roller coasters from Dr. Matt Johnson, a senior research scientist at IHMC.

Participants will implement simple models of roller coasters to understand the concepts of potential and kinetic energy. We hope you’ll join us, as we promise lots of fun with this STEM activity. Register now! Tickets are free, but space is limited.

The season sponsors, Florida Power and Light, the Florida Blue Foundation, Cox, the Altera Group, and the Escambia County Sheriff's Office, make it possible for interested students to enjoy science and STEM for free at IHMC.

Attendance at each session is limited to registered ticket holders. If there are no tickets left, please click JOIN WAITLIST. It’s worthwhile to join the list, as we usually get cancellations before each Science Saturday. And - if you don’t get a ticket after joining the list, you can request priority registration for next time. Questions? Please call the IHMC front desk at 850-202-4462.

STEM is super fun! We hope your 3rd and 4th grade students will join us at 9 am. (Please register students in grades grades 5, 6, and 7 for 11 am. Both sessions will be age appropriate, so please register for the correct time.)
