The Adair County Primary Center recently hosted a Family Science Night. The Lindsey Wilson College Education Program played a big part in setting up different science stations to visit.

Among the six stations were activities about exploring planets, constellations, looking at root systems in plants, different blood types, our senses, and why things sink or float.

Special thanks to LWC, the ACPC Family Resource Center, Title 1 and 21st Century Learning.
