Can't get enough of slime or just want to learn how to make it? We will make four different types of slime during our STEM Summer Camp- Slime Science! We will make butter slime, cloud slime, crunchy floam slime, and fluffy slime. We will learn about the science of slime, use observations, and scientific thinking in our class. We will meet for 4 classes making this class only $12 per class. This is a beginner class, so no slime making experience is necessary. You will need to purchase the ingredients, so plan ahead. Once you sign up for the class, you will receive the ingredient list. It will include slime basic ingredients like glue, slime activator, food color, ziplock bags, and more. Types of slime we will create in this class: • Butter Slime • Oobleck • Cloud Slime • Crunchy Floam Slime • Glitter Slime • Fluffy Slime We may also have time for a chemical reaction brew too!
Learning Goals
Students will learn the science of slime. We will learn about non-Newtonian fluids, chemistry, physics, solids, liquids, gases, and scientific vocabulary. We will observe slime viscosity, polymers, and shear thickening. We will will also compare and contrast our slime recipes, as well as learn how to troubleshoot slime failures.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
Parents should supervise younger children while they make the slime. Sometimes children have difficulty getting lids off and pouring liquids, so they may need your help with that. Use Kids Safety Glasses to protect your eyes. You can find them at https://amzn.to/31lkdYC. (Use your parental judgment).
Supply List
A supply list will be provided with all supplies and ingredients required. Will include slime making basics like glue, shaving cream, slime activator, model magic clay, liquid starch, food coloring, insta snow, and a place to get messy! There will also be a slime making worksheet to print out.
