OUR GOAL is to prepare future scientists and caretakers of the natural world for a lifetime of imaginative investigation. WHO WE ARE Academy of Science for Kids 36181 East Lake Rd Lab 137 Palm Harbor, FL 34685 727-641-3853 727-772-7950 Fax Joanie Falk of Palm Harbor, Florida is not your typical science teacher. She is a bundle of energy with a passion and optimism that never seems to wane. She is a difference maker in the classroom, the kind of teacher that changes a child’s attitude toward learning. Determined to influence the lives of students beyond her classroom, Joanie knew that kids learn best and retain more when they are engaged and having fun. This successful formula for learning is the key ingredient behind her program - Academy of Science for Kids (ASK). As president of the highly successful company, Joanie has taken her enthusiasm and combined it with the most successful lesson plans from 18 years of teaching in schools, Girl Scouts and summer camps. The result is her line of Little Professor Science Kits; each kid-tested and kid-approved, which science teachers, both old and new, have come to love. “These are not just kits”, says Mrs. Falk, “but a system of learning designed for success.” Each kit contains high quality materials and activities, which have been selected to sustain thought processes necessary for in-depth reasoning. Teachers love that absolutely everything is included and easily executed. Big concepts are taught while allowing a child the freest range of expression and investigation - no narrow, preset instructions to stifle creativity and lead to frustration. Brains will grow and confidence will too! © 2014 Academy of Science for Kids. All Rights Reserved.
