Jr. Science Searchers - Completing Kindergarten
June 30 - July 11 — From Outer Space to Ocean Depths Explore the reaches of outer space as we contemplate the sun, moon, planets and stars. Develop the surface of the moon as we learn about its seas, volcanoes and Apollo landings, and build your own miniature 'moon rover.' Harness the energy of the sun in your solar oven to roast toasty marshmallows. Next, plunge into the mysteries of the ocean. Meet and study its animals, large and small, friendly and dangerous. Learn how the bodies of sharks are both similar and different from ours using a synthetic shark. Visit fictitious 'Polluterville' and see how you can help protect the coral reefs and ocean life; create a newsletter to report your findings. July 14 – 25 — From Dinosaurs to Tropical Rainforests Take a trip back to the time of the dinosaurs. Learn about carnivores, herbivores and omnivores. Investigate fossils, ponder the continental drift and uncover the lives of the dinosaurs! Don your paleontologist hat for fun and adventure! Then experience a kaleidoscope of sights, sounds and smells as you explore the layers of the tropical rainforest. Listen closely to the sounds of the monkeys, bats and frogs. Make a spice book, discover the beauty of bromeliads and pitcher plants, and eat a rainforest feast! For information about GRC Summer Academies or to request a brochure, please call 314-962-5920. |
