MathVenture Junior
Help Matt the Magician become a mathematician! Rising 1st through 3rd graders will apply their math skills, along with learning some new ones, to assist Matt as he journeys around Math Island. But, alas, no journey is complete without obstacles! These obstacles will require students to apply their learning in fractions, time, money, graph, measurement, and so much more. Is your student ready to become a mathematician?
MathVenture
Matt the Magician successfully completed his journey to become a mathematician. Now he is ready for the next challenge–to compete at the annual math competition. Rising 3rd to 5th graders will be challenged as they compete individually and in groups to apply their mathematical skills. Students will see a variety of topics throughout the week including PEMDAS, decimals, fractions, 3D shapes, metric system, and so much more. Is your student ready to win the competition?
Eco-Explorers
Hop in our Jeep or submarine and explore with us! Students will examine different ecosystems and how animals behave and interact with one another. Through project-based learning, writing, and additional activities, our student-centered curriculum will make biology fun and understandable.
Time Traveler Tales
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to cast a vote for the Constitution in 1700s America? What if you could write your own myth in ancient Greece? Or create a haiku after exploring famous Japanese landmarks? Experience all of this and more when you power up your time machine for Time Traveler Tales! In this camp for rising 4th–6th graders that combines both history and writing, students will weave through time, diving into a variety of different cultures, landmarks, and historical events. At each stop on their travels, students will learn about one new writing style, using it to enrich their experience of a historical topic. Interactive games, group activities, and crafts will further enhance students’ journeys. Your seat awaits on this journey to the past, launching in 3…2…1!
