About This Activity
In this introductory camp, children will learn about the habits of a scientist and about different fields of science through a variety of activities! Each day has a different theme. Budding physicists will explore the properties of matter and explore the chemistry of bubbles and slime. Engineers of tomorrow will learn the basics of electrical energy by building electronic circuits and seeing how sunlight can be turned into electrical energy. Young biologists will explore the surrounding flora and fauna as they hike Kopernik’s nature trail. Youthful astronomers will learn to focus and use a telescope as they look at nearby terrestrial objects. On Edwin Link Flight Day, the students will explore the concepts of thrust, drag, pitch and yaw, as well as gravity and friction. They will build and fly paper airplanes and air rockets. Camps have a maximum enrollment and many fill quickly each year. Register early to avoid disappointment. Register before June 1 to avoid late registration fee. Early drop off (8 am) and late pick up (4 pm) are available for a $15/day. Email registration@kopernik.org for information.
