Sarah's Science

Spring Camp now enrolling for March 30 - April 3 in Oakland! This week at camp will be devoted to the study of streams. Through a series of exciting hands-on science lessons we will explore stream ecosystems and the creatures and plants that make streams so fascinating. Each day, campers will make and take home two science projects and on Wednesday, we'll take a field trip by bus to explore a local stream. In addition to studying stream life, we'll make fun art projects, play outdoors, create Lego structures, and watch science movies.

You bet girls love science! Our Mother & Daughter Science Workshop (Saturday, March 21 in Oakland) is designed to let girls experience the joy of science and help mothers support their daughters' pursuit of science. In this workshop, we'll have a blast exploring electricity! Girls (and their mothers) will design and create their own fairy from our collection of awesome arts and crafts supplies. The magic will happen when they wire up a circuit using batteries, wires, switches, and color changing LED's to make their fairy sparkle! After a potluck lunch, while the daughters make a second exciting hands-on science project, the mothers will break off to share ideas and resources on ways to encourage our daughters in science.
