Removing DNA from cells, testing for food additives, and measuring radioactive hot spots are just a few of the activities that docents facilitate in the Hands On Science Center.

    Extractions: Celebrating Black History Month Information, Resources and Online Activities Join the Discussion "[W]hat activities have worked for you [when teaching about Black History] in the past.... Please give your suggestions and share that vast storehouse of knowledge all educators have at their disposal." The roots of Black History month can be traced to the early part of the 20th century. In 1925, Carter G. Woodson, an educator and historian began campaigning among schools, journals and black newspapers calling for a 'Negro History Week' to be celebrated. This would honor the importance of black achievement and contribution in the United States. He was able to institute this 'Negro History Week' in 1926 during the second week of February. This time was chosen because Abraham Lincoln's and Frederick Douglass' birthdays occurred then. Woodson was awarded the Springarn Medal from the NAACP for his accomplishment. In 1976, Negro History Week turned into Black History Month which we celebrate today. Read more about
