How is a Mad Science Camp Structured?
Mad Science camps offer a daily combination of in-class discovery and exploration, outdoor games and physical activities and hands-on applications of the scientific principles presented. Your child will be able touch, see, hear, smell and taste what science is really all about. We use an inquiry-based technique that allows even the youngest camper to enjoy our learning environment. Campers create a variety of take-home projects and participate in snack-tivities while exploring how science affects the world around us. In each camp we employ a variety of instruction methods: large group discussion, small group activities and individual instruction. This allows our instructors to present the scientific principles in an age and grade appropriate manner. The majority of the time your child will be in camp will be spent in small groups of 3 to 5 campers grouped by age or grade. Above all, the emphasis in camp is to have fun! Your child will have so much fun he may deny he was learning!
