The Magic of Science
Perform amazing magic tricks while you learn about energy, chemistry
and physics. Find out the secret behind making bubbles that bounce
and balance a drinking glass in a way that seems to defy gravity and
the laws of physics. Weave popsicle sticks together and release them
in an explosion of kinetic energy. If your mind is full of the wonder of
science and you love to discover and explore, this is the class for you!

Tasty Science
What do science and the things you eat have in common? In this class
you’ll explore the chemistry of chocolate as you create chocolate slime,
learn why some things taste good dipped in chocolate while others
do not! Discover the chemical secrets to creating delicious treats like
bubble gum and ice cream, as well as explore the science behind what
makes soft drinks fizz and cause you to burp! Learn basic chemistry as
you place Mentos in liquid to make an explosion, ferment your own
root beer and tackle even more edible experiments!

Rock On Dinosaurs!
Crystals, Geodes and More!
Dig into the past and explore the land before time as you discover
dinosaurs, fossils, rocks andminerals. As a junior paleontologist, (better
known as a ‘’dino-lover’’), you’ll build a dinosaur model, break open a
geode, grow amazing crystals, and construct an erupting volcano, all
in one sensational week.

Windmills, Whirligigs andWhirlwinds
Science and art collide in this class as you learn about the science of
wind-power through the creation of whimsical whirligigs and colorful
windmills. You can’t see the wind but you can feel it and see where it’s
been. Wind is moving air and its power is used to sail ships, dry laundry
and fly kites. Learn how the shape of an object affects how it moves in
space and how to use the power of wind to make pinwheels spin and
whirligigs twist and dance.

Exploring Science through Sports
What do sports and science have in common? More than you can
imagine! Explore the scientific theories that relate to sports, such as
why some balls are more aerodynamic than others. Does a bowling
ball curve on the floor for the same reason a baseball curves in the
air? Can you design a helmet for the Helmet Challenge that withstands
impact with a wall or dropped from ten feet off the ground? Through
the study of science and sports, develop a greater understanding on
how the human body reacts to exercise, training, different environ-
ments and many other stimuli.
