Campers gain high levels of individual attention in small class sizes and engage in hands-on, project-based, inquiry-driven learning.
In the Moon Explorers camp, first graders embark on an adventure to train like astronauts and plan their own mission to the Moon. Campers will engage in hands-on activities such as launching stomp rockets and exploring the principles of gravity. They will investigate what humans would need to survive on the lunar surface, fostering problem-solving and critical thinking skills. The program also delves into the mysteries of the Sun, Moon, and Earth, encouraging scientific inquiry and a deeper understanding of our solar system. This immersive experience is designed to inspire young aspiring astronauts and engineers.
A typical day includes check-in, an opening circle, morning content exploration activities, snack breaks, lunch outdoors with games, indoor downtime with books and crafts, afternoon content exploration, and visits to exhibits like the Planetarium or Outdoor Nature Lab.
This camp is ideal for curious first graders who dream of becoming astronauts and love hands-on exploration and building.
