Middle School Science Bowl
Launched in 1991, the National Science Bowl (NSB) is a highly competitive science education and academic event among teams of high school and middle school students. Students will face off in a fast-paced, question-and-answer format, and to be tested on a range of science disciplines including biology, chemistry, earth and space science, physics, energy, and math. The winner of the academic portion of the Regional Science Bowl wins an all-expenses-paid trip to Washington DC to compete in the National Science Bowl.
This is a great opportunity for students who are passionate about science and engineering to show off their talents in this academic competition. In preparing for the middle school Science Bowl Competition, schools will select students to form teams in the fall and train the teams for regional competition in February.
This class will lead students to go through several STEM Texts and practice with middle school sample questions provided by the National Science Bowl (NSB), preparing students for their school's Science Bowl team selection in the coming Fall. Students may also find out their favorite science subject to go deeper in the future.
This class will focus on the topics of Physical science, Earth and Space Science, Energy, and Mathematics.
