CCLL News & EventsScience Fair Workshop Saturday,

AtFranklin
McKinley School, well over 100 parents (mostly
mothers, mostly without English language) and their children participated in a
hands-on workshop to put together the Science Fair posters due the week of April
7, 2008. Each child/family got to
work with an SJSU student (over 20 volunteered – HS undergrads, MPH students,
Latino fraternity members, AmeriCorps volunteers) at workstations focusing on
Experiment Ideas, Writing the Text, Typing and Printing on the Computer, Laying
out the Components, and Constructing the Board. We even set up an outside station for
experiments (as more than we had anticipated arrived without having started the
assignment). This activity was
sponsored by AmeriCorps, CommUniverCity, Health Science Department, and HDSLC
grant from Community-Campus Partnerships for Health.
