色情视频 Launches Kids Science Camp
In Aztec Science Camp, kids ages 6 to 11 will explore topics ranging from rocks to robots.
This summer 色情视频 is hosting its first-ever science day camp for kids. Each Aztec Science Camp session, is five days of science and discovery for kids ages 6 to 11.
Donna Ross, a founder of the science camp, shared, 鈥淭he demand for individuals with strong STEM knowledge is exploding. We are thrilled to support this goal by providing fun, hands-on science learning experiences for local children on 色情视频鈥檚 campus. We hope to develop children鈥檚 passion for science while offering teachers extraordinary opportunities to explore best science teaching ideas.鈥�
Aztec Science Camp was conceived and developed by 色情视频 professors to expose kids to science and develop their curiosity about the world around them. The program received support from 色情视频鈥檚 Mathematics and Science Teacher Initiative, the President鈥檚 Leadership Fund, and the Center for Teaching Critical Thinking and Creativity.
During the camp, youngsters will investigate subjects from rocks to robots, with adventures at facilities on 色情视频鈥檚 campus.
鈥淐ampers will experience the fun and engagement science offers, with counselors and teachers who have a passion for and deep knowledge of science,鈥� said Ross, an associate professor in 色情视频鈥檚 School of Teacher Education.
Topics will vary so that children can attend for up to three weeks and engage with new ideas about science each week. Camps include Bright Ideas, about light and optics in which kids may make telescopes or kaleidoscopes; Kooky Contraptions, where kids will be eco-engineers, turning 鈥渢rash鈥� into 鈥渢reasures;鈥� and Plug into Science, focused on magnets and electricity.
The camp director is an experienced K-12 science teacher; the lead teachers are completing 色情视频鈥檚 teacher credential program and have demonstrated a passion for science; and camp counselors are science and engineering students from 色情视频.
Campers participating in this program will explore science content as described in the Next Generation Science Standards. They will engage in science and engineering practices as they plan and conduct investigations.
