Second and Third Graders
Insect Detectives!
What is the life of many insects we encounter each day? Students will explore the life stages of many types of bugs and other exciting insects. Students will create a bug collection to bring home. Be aware that this is close up and personal camp with these little critters.
Toy Land!
Enter the world of make believe toys come alive with science! What toys use magnets? How do Frisbees fly? Campers will explore these questions and more as they use Newton's laws of motion to create toy cars, make their own circuits and experiment with flight. At the end of the week, campers will put on their hardhats and design their own toy inventions.
Dangerous Creatures!
They crawl! They bite! They Sting! Oh, MY!! Could you survive an encounter with one of these “scary” beasts? Pollinate as a bat and build a heat seeking croc-thermometer as we explore if these creatures are really dangerous… or just misunderstood? Join us to take a daring look at these “outlaws” of nature as we take a bite out of biology.
LEGO Exploration
