Science Labs and Experiments

"Learn by Doing: One Experiment at a Time!"

We can’t overstate the importance of science labs in education. Labs provide students with various opportunities to explore, learn and experiment.

We start with simple experiments designed for kids and then the experiments become bigger and more complex as they go into Junior and Senior High School.

What our students and parents say:

"My daughter and I just wanted to reach out because you've been such an enormous help with her photosynthesis project for her Science class! For her project she was asked to create a comic strip that demonstrates her understanding of photosynthesis. While looking for information to help with her project we discovered your biology page and found it to be an incredible help. It's her first science class project for the year so she wanted to get the best possible grade on it and I think she will thanks to you! :) "
Lisa Parent from USA
"Following your courses from Kenya and learning a lot!"
Erick Student from Kenya
"I have been reading your science materials since 2021 and have seen the growth of the site is just amazing. considering all your teachers are volunteers, I find this really amazing."
