CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (1st-6th Grade) 

 

Whodunit? Young detectives will enter a world of mystery and mayhem as they try to solve a “crime”. They will learn how detectives solve cases and what strategies they can use to help. Stealth and saavy investigation will be important. Students will read, write, listen and "detect". Fingerprints, "blood" samples, footprints, DNA extraction and more will combine and leave some surprises in store. A special visit from a K9 friend will give young detectives a sneak peek into the world of investigative police work and all that goes into solving real cases. Note: Campers who sign up for this event will be given a character to portray. On the last day of camp, each child will come dressed as their character and participate to solve a mystery that will start as soon as they enter the room. Who will be the guilty one? Who will be the mole? Can you solve the mystery?

Google Earth Meets Virtual Reality (1st-6th Grade) 

Google Earth and Virtual Reality activities will take campers around the globe and give them a bird’s-eye view of the many wonders of the world. Campers will visit various famous locations and then create science based experiments surrounding their experience. What makes the Great Salt Lake so special? How does the Leaning Tower of Pisa stay up? Why was a catapult an important part of warfare for castles? Campers might feel the thrill of a roller coaster and then engineer one of their own. Note: Campers will be asked to bring an iPhone two days of camp if one is available to them. They will use it occasionally only when working with the Virtual Reality glasses. Campers without iPhones are welcome to register and will still receive the full camp experience.
