Take a closer look at the microscopic
mechanisms that make humans tick! Each unit of this awesome 12-day camp examines the complexities of human anatomy and physiology with engaging, hands-on activities. Through learning-by-doing experiences, students begin to unravel the mysteries of the human body by running for a minute to measure heart rate, approximate energy expenditure and discover the importance of refueling with proper nutrition. Maintaining health and fitness is a lifelong endeavor, and Science of the Human Body is the perfect introduction to an eternity of healthy happiness!
Let imaginations run wild as students discover the exciting applications of mechanical engineering! Starting with step-by-step builds to introduce each of the simple machines, learners eventually advance their way to constructing creations of their own. They investigate levers, pulleys and inclined planes, and enhance critical thinking skills while building upon existing knowledge every day of camp. Participants learn the importance of engineering and how it influences today’s society while being amazed at the structures designed and created during Simple Machines Camp!
