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!

Chemistry for Cool Kids
Explore the world of chemistry through fun, hands-on experiments using every
day materials. Discover the chemistry behind some of your favorite candies,
learn how to make a bouncy ball, and build rockets! Sensational experiments
will be performed every day in class, but they can also easily be performed at
home, to the amazement of your family and friends.

NEW! Just AddWater
Explore the essential properties of water and how it makes life possible. Through
hands-on experiments, see firsthand how water is unlike any other substance
on earth, and why we must protect this valuable natural resource. Did you know
that there is more water in the atmosphere than all the world’s rivers combined?
There’s no need to bring your rain boots to class, but expect to get up close and
personal with this necessity in everyday life.

NEW! Polymer Science - a.k.a. SLIME!
Explore the chemistry of polymers! A polymer is a large molecule made up of
repeating units called monomers ... but you know it better as slime, silly putty
and gak. Polymers are found in the human body, animals, plants, minerals,
and manufactured products, and in this class you’ll explore different types of
polymers and the chemistry behind them. Learn about insta-snow, water jelly
crystals, how diapers work, tie-dye, synthetic polymers like rubber, plastic, and
nylon, as well as natural polymers like starch, DNA, and proteins. Guaranteed
chemistry mess and fun!

Marine Science
Explore the biology, chemistry, ecology, geography, and physics of the ocean
in this hands-on science class. This class will also include the dissection
of some marine specimens in order to learn about their anatomy. The
relationship between ocean life, the coastal environment, and humans will be
investigated as you learn about the impact of technology and pollution on
marine ecosystems. The ocean has many influences on the earth and provides
humankind with many resources. Learn what you can do to protect this
beautiful and essential part of the world in which we live.
