# When science sounds like magic...

Looking for something a little different for Halloween this half-term?

Our Frog **Spooky Science** special explores the fascinating side of science that can sometimes sound more like fiction, magic or even a spooky story. Students will investigate strange phenomena, explore the science behind some mysterious happenings and discover that the real explanation can be just as surprising as the story!

![Screen-Halloween-1](https://inspire.frogeducation.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blogs/Frog%20Ribbits/2026/Screen-Halloween-1.jpg?width=505&height=200&name=Screen-Halloween-1.jpg)

Designed as a lighter, low pressure half-term activity, the site is ideal for students to explore independently or as a fun classroom activity. The site is in presentation mode to guide them through the peculiar lab and its haunted contents.

There are mysteries to investigate, evidence to uncover and plenty of opportunities to get students thinking scientifically, without feeling like another formal lesson.

Because sometimes...   
***Science* is stranger than *fiction*!**

We believe that every child can be given a unique and personal education, and that this can be delivered by today’s teachers without increasing workload through the clever use of technology.
