CAPE ELIZABETH

Cape Elizabeth Community Services

June 26 - June 30        Life on Earth - Week One: Starting Small (entering grades 1 - 6)

Kids can be enrolled in any of the weeks in the Life on Earth series. Each week runs independently from the other.
Chemistry, Biology, and Ecology go hand-in-hand in this earth-centered camp.  Over two weeks we'll explore what makes life possible on our amazing planet, starting from the tiniest atoms all the way up to the entire story of life on earth so far!   These three interconnected weeks will build upon each other and will use fun, fascinating, hands-on science to bring students a complete perspective of the biological hierarchy of life on planet earth -- from little to big.

Week One: Starting Small    

All life starts with atoms, their reactions and their interactions.  This week we’ll explore the tiny side of life on earth by starting with the building blocks of... well, everything.  Get up close with atoms, elements, chemical reactions, and biomolecules like DNA.

Aug 14 - Aug 18        Life on Earth - Week Two: Coming Alive (entering grades 1 - 6)

Isn’t it amazing you are you, and you share this planet with so many incredible living things?  This week we’ll learn all about the living things that tiny things can make.  Experiment your way from single cells and the organ systems in your body, all the way to the biggest gorilla in the forest and the biggest shark in the sea to the moon and eclipses. Discover how robotics and machines help us solve problems!

All High Touch High Tech programs are taught by our team of scientists and are totally hands-on and totally participatory for each camper. Our scientists are able to accommodate as many sessions as necessary to meet the needs of your camp.

Children in grades pre-k through sixth grade will be engaged in 45-minutes of non-stop, hands-on scientific exploration! We use materials that are concrete, safe and relevant to the everyday lives for children of all ages. Upon completion of the field trip, students will receive a cool science certificate and ALL programs include “make-and-take” experiments!

Frequently Asked Questions

 

Q: Why do you cap the session size at 25 children?                                                     A: In order to maintain the hands-on nature of our programming and provide assistance to as many children as require, we request to limit the size of the program.

Q: Are the supplies included with the program?                                                           A: All supplies are provided by High Touch High Tech. Our Scientist will bring enough supplies for each camper to enjoy a hands-on experience.

Q: When will the Scientist arrive?
A: Our Scientists require only 5-10 minutes to set up for your program; therefore, you should expect them to arrive approximately 10 minutes prior to the start of your program.

We Look Forward To Visiting Your Camp!
