Space Camp - All Things Space With Fun, Crafts and Science Experiments, Oh My!
In this multi-day class, students will feel immersed (I use green screen technology) as we blast off into space. Over the course of 4 days we will talk about the planets, stars, moons, comets and so much more through experiments and crafts.

In this camp style class, we will meet 3 times in one week to talk about space. I will be using a green screen so students will feel immersed in space. We will explore actual photos of space and do crafts and experiments that might even be edible. Each day will be filled with fun and learning. Please note: some experiments may require parental guidance. Along with Science knowledge, learners will practice social and core skills such as counting, language, reading and communication. Supplies for each day are listed in the materials section below. This is a multi day class meaning we will meet 3 days in a row for 1 week. Topics will include Plants, the Moon, Sun, Asteroids, Comets, Stars and so much more.
