Don T Blow Your Top

Wacky World of Science Summer Camp Activity Schedule

Monday – Rock Docs Tuesday -Crime Scene Capers Wednesday – Kitchen Chemistry Thursday – 3.2.1 Blast Off! Friday – Chemistry, Air Pressure & Circuits Let’s Rock Fingerprinting Milk Madness Who Are the Planets In Your The Magic of Air We’ll become geologist as we Fingerprints are unique to We will experiment with milk Neighborhood? We’ll learn the amazing effects of take a journey to the center of each of us. We will make and reveal its amazing We will learn some amazing air pressure and conduct several the earth. We’ll make our fingerprint cards and learn characteristics. We’ll separate it facts about our planets, make experiments that can be re-created into its liquid and solid parts and own sedimentary, techniques for lifting prints. a human solar system, and at home to demonstrate how make our own handmade glue test our knowledge with a fun metamorphic and molten rock We will also see if we can from milk proteins. We’ll also awesome air really is. models, then we’ll break open identify fellow campers by make and taste handmade sticky alien game.

Then we’ll create an Activities amazing surprise inside. explosion of color using the fat molecules in milk. *Allergy Alert Don’t Blow Your Top DNA Crystal Creations What’s Got You Down? Electric Slide Volcanoes spew molten rock DNA is what makes everyone We will learn how crystals We will explore the force of We’ll learn all about circuits and (lava) from deep within the unique. We will make DNA are formed and will grow our gravity as we conduct electricity and will identify earth. We’ll construct a bracelets and extract DNA own crystal snowflakes. experiments on how acceleration materials that are insulators and affects gravity and test out the working volcano model that from fruit. We will also We’ll also get an up-close law of universal gravitation. We conductors. We’ll use our you can take home and erupt compare genetic traits with look at magnified crystals, will then work in engineering knowledge to create an electric again and again using a our other CSIs. and make some beautiful teams to build a space capsule game. simple chemical reaction. crystal art with a little help that can safely land an from evaporation. “eggstronaut”. Digging For Dinosaurs Blood Typing Carbon Dioxide Cookery Shoot For the Stars Super Quick Catalysts We’ll become paleontologists Blood is made of the same Chemistry is occurring all the We will learn what stars are We’ll experiment with the as we learn about these basic components, time when we bake. We’ll comprised of, create an enzyme catalase, which is amazing creatures that lived however we’ll learn that experiment with rising yeast edible* model of our biggest found in all living some 225 million years ago. there are different blood and learn why baking soda is star – the sun, and build a organisms. We’ll also use We’ll take on a dinosaur dig types.
