Description

Inventions and Discoveries Camp 2- Technologies and Advanced Tools


Campers will have the chance to explore the history and science of some amazing and useful technologies and advanced tools, many of which we use every day!   Each afternoon, campers will have access to 3 creative stations and a research station.  Participants can build things or learn about the topic of the day.  They’ll be encouraged to ask questions about how the invention or discovery impacted humans and when and where it occurred.  


This camp will cover the following topics- 

  • Wheel/transportation
  • Communications including the printing press and telephone
  • Electricity and EM spectrum
  • Lenses and Medical Technology
  • Computers

Co-op Lead
I have been involved in homeschool enrichment programs for over 10 years. I enjoy helping students learn to ask questions and dig for knowledge. My preferred system of learning is leading students in project-based studies in geography, science, art and ELA. My hobbies include ballroom dancing, art, music, and birding.
