Family Health and Science Festival: A Seek (Science Exploration, Excitement, and Knowledge) Event

The Family Health and Science Festival consists of 19 activity stations for an event to accompany SEEK (Science Exploration, Excitement, and Knowledge): A Curriculum in Health and Biomedical Science for Diverse 4th and 5th Grade Students. The festival can also be presented independently of the curriculum at schools, museums, and other venues. The festival stations cover nutrition, the brain, infectious diseases, environmental toxics, diabetes, asthma, the heart, and genetics. The curriculum and festival were developed under a Science Education Partnership Award (SEPA) from the National Center for Research Resources at the National Institutes of Health.
