Primus Summer Camp: 과학 캠프 - 화학 및 물리+실험실

Atoms are the basic building blocks of all matter. The computer you are reading this on, the building you are in, the beverage you are drinking, you, me, the air we breathe are all made of atoms and molecules. Chemistry is the study of atoms and molecules and how they interact and react. Physics if the study of how things happen around us including energy, work, and motion.

Students will learn about atoms and molecules, solutions, & chemical reactions. We will study energy and motion, light and sound. We will conduct experiments to enhance the topics we are learning about.

We will spend the first part of each class learning about the chemistry or physics topic of the day. We will complete an experiment or project in the second part of the class. 

Our schedule will be:
Monday: Atoms & Molecules/ We will conduct a solubility experiment
Tuesday: Solutions & States of Matter / We will conduct a solutions experiment
Wednesday: Chemical Reactions a & Acids and Bases/ We will do a chemical reaction experiment
Thursday: Energy, Work & Motion/ We will do a transfer of energy experiment
Friday: Magnets and Lights & Sound/ We will conduct a sound experiment

Safety Note: All experiments should be conducted in a well-ventilated area. Safety goggles or glasses are recommended. A table covering is recommended in case there are spills. Students MUST be able to follow ALL instructions for their own safety.  If your student will have problems listening and following directions, please have an adult nearby to assist. Please have all of the supplies prepared and ready before each class. All experiments are safe - we use common household products - but is imperative all students LISTEN carefully while we are working on our experiments to maintain a safe classroom. 

Supplies needed for each class:
Monday: Skittles, a small plate (saucer-sized), 1 cup of warm water
Tuesday: Five clear plastic cups filled half-full with water,  2 spoons, paper towels, 2 tablespoons EACH of sugar, salt, oatmeal (or a similar grain such as barley or rice), and cooking oil, plus a bottle of dish detergent
Wednesday: 1 bowl & 1 non-metal cup or smaller bowl that will fit in the bigger bowl & 1 cup of vinegar & 1/4 cup of baking soda 
Thursday: 1 piece of paper, 2 disposable plastic or paper straws, tape, 6 glass marbles
Friday: 1 Disposable plastic cup, 1 piece of plastic wrap to fit the top of the cup, rubber band that will fit around the top of the cup, 10-12 pieces of rice
