2013 Summer Camps<br />
Science Discovery Camp Ages 8 - 12<br />
Discover the exciting world <strong>of</strong> science with fun, hands-on<br />
experiments and science projects. Instructor Eb Molesch has more<br />
than four decades <strong>of</strong> analytical science experience and will guide<br />
you through some really cool experiments in light (optics) such as<br />
rainbows and mixtures <strong>of</strong> color, you’ll learn what happens when<br />
matter changes, and you’ll have fun with color separation. Through<br />
<br />
gases using balloons, soda pop, & changes in temperature, and<br />
explore the world <strong>of</strong> tiny objects with microscopes. Each student<br />
is going to get safety glasses, and a workbook with instructions on<br />
how to record the experiments, and then reach some conclusions<br />
about each module. Get ready for discovery!<br />
