June 18-29 — Liquid States, Number Traits & Creative Greats
What can creep up the side of a glass, create its own drops, rise above the rim of a glass without spilling, and expand as it freezes? Water! Can we make it snow in the summertime? Fossilize raindrops? Create a chemical reaction with water? The scientific words we'll use – chromatography, surface tension skippers – all measure up to FUN! Go 'under water' to design a sea-scape city of 3-D art! Hide your sea monsters in collage projects of your own making. Will you float through your dramatic production like a sea serpent or develop your sea legs? Can you count without numbers or calculate without place value? Have you ever interpreted a Peruvian quipu or added in Babylonian? Math didn't just happen! Match wits with the ancients as we explore number systems from all corners of the globe. All the while, looking for the answer to the ultimate life question: How do you get inside a bubble?
