ScienceForge

Think like a scientist: ask a question, design a fair test, predict what will happen, look at the evidence, and explain what it means — one careful step at a time.

Investigate

Three hands-on science surfaces — set up a fair test, run the predict-observe-explain loop real scientists use, and see why things float or sink.

Experiment Designer ✨ new Given a real question, pick the one thing to change and the one thing to measure — then spot experiments that aren't fair and say what went wrong. Predict · Observe · Explain ✨ new Read a mini-experiment, guess what will happen, see the real results in a chart, then choose the explanation the evidence actually supports. Density & Buoyancy Lab ✨ new Predict whether an object floats or sinks, work out its density (mass ÷ volume), then change the mass and watch the beaker settle — why a big steel ship floats but a tiny bolt sinks.

Practice the concepts

Play together

Go head-to-head with a friend — same device or an online room.

ScienceForge Duel (pass-and-play) 2–4 players take turns on one device — same questions, highest first-try score wins. Or open an online room to play a friend on another device. ScienceForge Journey — follow the map → A path through every kit. Clear each stop, then move on — see how far you’ve come.

Mixed practice

Mixed practice — revisit what you've learned A short round that shuffles questions from the kits you've played, brought back when they're ready to review. Great for making it stick. ScienceForge Sprint — a calm speed round → Once you’ve mastered a few kits, race your OWN best on what you already know. Timer optional, no penalty for a miss.
