$99 for a Four-Hour Glassworking Class ($199 Value)

Students can choose between Flameworking 101 or Beginning Beadmaking classes, during which they craft works of art by using table-mounted torches. They create their own glass sculptures in Flameworking 101 and learn glassworking basics, such as sculpting and welding, working with tools, lampworking materials, and the properties of glass. In Beginning Beadmaking, students make between 4 and 10 colorful beads as they learn about soft glass, bead shaping, surface decoration, and annealing. Items are left to cool in the studio overnight and can be retrieved the following day.

Glasscraft

Homer Hoyt founded the glass-arts school Glasscraft in 1970, the same year he penned the book Glassblowing: An Introduction to Solid and Blown Glass Sculpturing. Both creations have aged well: his book remains in print, and his school, staffed by qualified instructors who teach the intricate art of molding glass, continues to thrive. Inside safe, clean studios, students learn to decorate the surface of beads with swirls of color and create sculptures with solid insides perfect for concealing genies from jealous family members. Guest artists often visit the school to lead workshops centered around their specialization.

The Groupon Guide to: Science-Fair Projects

As the school year continues to heat up, it's time to start thinking about this year's science fair. Here's a list of science projects that will help you win the science competition at your school:

  • A homemade volcano, but you add chunks of hot dog to the baking soda/vinegar mixture to get texture and flavor
  • Use your homemade potato battery to send an electric current through your braces. Then tell people at your table, "My mouth's an outlet, plug in your phone."
  • In front of poster that says "What would life be like without photosynthesis?" place two pizzas side by side, one with green peppers and one without.
  • Just put out a clear plastic case and label it "air."
  • Perform the most challenging live science experiment of all—seeing if you can get your parents back together at your grade-school science fair.

Why do my braces always smell like potato?
