Irving Art of Science (IAOS)

Irving Art of Science (IAOS) uses experimentation as a method of learning and follows a hands-on, interactive teaching model. Each session features a new topic, and the curriculum is tailored to the needs of young minds while making science accessible to children. Students learn scientific principles and current environmental issues, see the beauty and art in science, and get experience both in labs and in front of the board discussing what they learned. They also learn how to type lab reports and summaries to explain everything they have learned.

• Ages: 2–12 years old
