The camp offers a unique blend of in-depth dissection experiences and active application of knowledge through "Olympic Games" to connect body structure with athletic performance.
Students will delve into human and animal anatomy and physiology through hands-on dissection of various organisms such as squid, shrimp, clams, frogs, mice, chickens, sheep, and pigs. They will examine organs like hearts, brains, and eyes to understand their specific functions. The camp also incorporates kinesiology concepts, where students apply their anatomical knowledge through active participation in "Olympic Games." During these games, they will run, jump, and measure different body parts in action, connecting body structure to athletic performance. By the end of the week, campers will gain a comprehensive understanding of critical organs and their functions, and be prepared to perform a basic medical exam. The program aims to make students smarter, stronger, and fitter by fostering an understanding of the human body and its movement.
A typical day involves hands-on dissection of various organisms in the morning, followed by engaging in "Olympic Games" in the afternoon to apply anatomical and kinesiological knowledge through physical activity.
This camp is ideal for middle school students who are curious about how the body works, enjoy hands-on learning, and are interested in both biology and physical activity.
