Session 1 June 25-July 6
Session 2 July 9-20
May sign up for both sessions, each session will cover different subjects.

$250 per two-week session.
 

Students will improve their scientific thinking through investigating phenomena from the world around us. Why do planes fly? Why do boats float? How can we predict earthquakes? Students will learn through inquiry and select their own phenomena to study. We will begin by learning about the scientific method and lab safety. Then students will learn the scientific concepts behind the phenomena they chose through the middle school science standards, NGSS. The course will conclude with a “Science Conference” in which students share their evidence and findings.
