Bancroft Middle School Family Science Night (San Leandro) – 21 March 2019

Cal ACS volunteers presented a half-dozen hands-on chemistry activities to students and their families, who took home CCEW 2019 souvenirs and IYPT 2019 Periodic Table Cards. We explored the chemistry of paper with tests for strength, grain direction, and the presence of lignin. Jillian of the Mobile Mill brought hands-on papermaking to the classroom — visitors learned the process and took home hand-made paper samples.
