Summer Science with Steve Holst!

Wonders of Science Summer Camps

 We had such a great time last year with a camp for 6-13 year olds that we are adding a camp for older students, or for those who are ready for more challenging labs, yet still with tons of fun demonstrations.  

Science Camp 1 is much of the same material we covered last year - Polymers, Density, Atomic Structure and Chemistry, Air Pressure/Flight and Rockets.  

Science Camp 2 (ages 10-15)  will have topics such as Chemistry, Geology, Biology, Light/Electricity and Magnetism, and Physics.  Our last day will be spent assembling and then firing off C-engine rockets.  

Each camp is filled with exciting  demonstrations and hands-on science. 

The location will again be Madrone Trail Charter School on Ross Lane in Medford for the week of June 16 - 20th.   If there is enough interest in Grants Pass we would love to do a camp there sometime in July, but right now are not planning on it.  You can find more info at the website -www.livingwatershomeschoolcourses.com

Our goal with the camps is to light a fire in the hearts of children to delight in studying God's creation.  Let me know if you have any questions.
