Morning
Welcome to Shark Tooth Island! Here is where your child will learn about shark facts with each lesson. They will travel around the island to Tin Foil Falls and learn to make boats while understanding the concept of buoyancy. Once they meet the white waters, they will need to create a bridge, and they will learn engineering concepts like the strength of triangles. Then to Treetop Towers, where they will learn tower building concepts and how to balance a golf ball on a tower of paper and tape! It;'s amazing what they create! Their all time favorite stop is on Roller Coaster Ridge, where they will make huge roller coasters with loops and hills and oh, my! Potential and kinetic energies are discussed while doing this challenge. Every challenge informs the child of a STEM principle (science, tech, engineering, or math) and comes complete with laughter, excitement, and teamwork. Kids love this island!**
Afternoon
Amusement Park Island provides children with the fun of building all the rides in their own amusement park. They will design a small roller coaster, a big roller coaster, spinning cups, and catapults to shoot an Angry Birds, using marshmallows. How fun is that?! Each challenge will come with a STEM lesson related to what they are building, so their minds will be sharpened, and the creative and critical thinking skills will be honed. A great week for these campers is planned!**
Campers will have outdoor activities included. Please have each child bring a sack lunch. Snacks will be provided morning and afternoon. Please have child bring their own snacks if they have allergies to wheat, sugar, milk, peanuts.
