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.
