The principles of physics come to life at California's Great America during Physics, Science & Math Days where we offer special presentations, educational activities, demonstrations, contests, hands on exhibits and more from our educational partners! Students will learn the laws of physics in motion and discover how math and science apply to amusement park excitement. Admission: $31. Admission + Meal: $42. Season Passholder Lab Fee: $15. Meal Only: $15.

Meal Purchase Day of Visit (if available): $17 Receive 1 complimentary chaperone ticket for every 15 tickets purchased!. How many years has this event been occurring?. 35 Years What is the average attendance of each day?. 4,000 Which day is the most popular?. The last day is usually the most popular for high schools. April 27 should have the most younger kids.

How do students participate in the activities?. Students are tasked by their teachers to participate in a certain number of activities and contests. Afterwards, they are given a stamp to signify they participated. How many schools are attending?.

About 75 a day. How much is it per student to attend?. $31.00 How can a school get involved?. They can reach out to youthsales@cagreatamerica.com to see what they want to do for the park. Proposed time commitment for speaking and booths?. Booth 9am-2pm.

For a panel, 10:30am-11:15am, and 1:15pm-2pm. Can students come without a school?.

Yes What are the options to make sure the event is turn key so your sponsors will return each year?. We can provide pop-up tents and a special sign to hang from the tent. Groups can also bring their own promotional banners and materials. Power and WiFi provided by Great America?. Only certain spots can provide power, but if they can request it on their exhibitor form, we can place them in an area with nearby power. We have park WiFi.

Tech support if needed. They can plug in a lap top if needed. Yes, but they may need to let us know in advance so we can set them up, or put them near an outlet. Time limit on each speaker. There is no time limit in mind, I was just thinking there could be a row of special guests that each talk about what they do, and talk about any cool projects. Then, open up the floor to questions.

Physics/Science/Math Days at California's Great America Physics, Science & Math Days @ California's Great America 2018 Click for PSM website Physics, Science & Math Days Imagine 10,000 students at California's Great America, armed with worksheets, calculators and accelerometers, all taking part in one of the largest physics lab activities in the world - Amusement Park Physics. Where can the experimenter step into the experiment and subject him/herself to forces in excess of 3 G's? Where can they experience zero-G and live to tell the tale? Where can they verify the PHYSICS they've been learning all year long? Where else but at California's Great America on Physics, Science, and Math Days. A Note Students at California's Great America have access to one of the world's largest laboratories for carrying our real-world science experiments. While on the rides, they experience a dizzying array of forces.

Where did they feel which kind of force? And ultimately, why did they feel those particular forces there? The beauty of Physics, Science and Math Days lies in linking classroom theory with the reality of what happens on multiple-g rides like Vortex and Drop Tower. We encourage teachers to prepare their students to make the most out of the opportunity that is present at Physics, Science and Math Days. Choose quality activities that will engage them and help them to learn more about the science behind their amusement park experience. That is why we've prepared this website that is jam-packed with activities, hints, tips and suggestions.

Dates for 2018 PSM Day 1 Fri, Apr 27, 2018 PSM Day 2 Fri, May 4, 2018 PSM Day 3 Fri, May 11, 2018 35 th Anniversary!! A Very Brief History Physics Day at Great America was started in 1983 by Don Rathjen from Foothill High School. Initially, he brought his physics students to the park on a normal operating day. In the second year, he brought three other teachers and their physics students to Great America, armed with accelerometers and calculators to study the physics behind roller coasters. Over the years, Physics Day grew until the park opened up on a non-operating day, exclusively for physics students.

The number of students grew, and the number of middle school science students attending the park had also grown. Two separate days were scheduled, one for high school physics, the other for middle school science. In 1995, a third day was added to accommodate math students who explore applications of mathematics in the real world. Physics Day, now Physics, Science & Math Days, has been in continuous operation since 1983. It's one of the only special days of its type where the park is open just for students and teachers for educational purposes. 35 years and going strong!

A steering committee of physics, science and math teachers worked to develop materials that were published for students and teachers, including the resources in this website. The committee worked closely with the park to improve these special days, and conducted an annual Teacher Orientation. The Special Events Department at California's Great America worked hard to make these days a success for teachers and students from throughout Northern California and as far north as British Columbia, Canada. Big Change back in 2017 - Accelerometers!

Note: The park specifically permits the use of measuring devices for determining accelerations and forces on the rides. The devices, manual or electronic, must be tethered to the student or they will not be allowed on rides.

However, a decision was made to permit use of the vests sold by Vernier Software & Technology and Pasco Scientific. Follow this link above for some other tethering suggestions: Many years past, Great America printed out a packet of activities, shrink-wrapped it and distributed it with the tickets sent to schools in the spring. Subsequently, the entire packet was converted to electronic form and available on a CD that was distributed with the school's tickets.

Now the entire packet is online and available by following the 'Curricular Activities' link above left. If you have an activity that you've developed for PSM Days, and would like to share it with other teachers and students, please attach it and send it to the.
