Outta this World Recap & SCIENCE ROCKS videos


Here are a few videos I made to recap our "Outta This World" camp experience...what fun memories!  


The participants at "Outta This World" tried out hands-on experiments and solved problems just like real NASA scientists. We were inspired learning about American heroes like Captain Jim Lovell (Apollo 13) and Christa McCauliffe (Challenger).

Our participants will fly as virtual crew members on the Orion test flight (2014? 2015?) thanks to the research they did on space radiation!

Outta This World camp was true summer enrichment. I am so proud of what we accomplished and pleased to acknowledge that similar programs would have cost 50-75% more than the cost of my program. I am able to keep costs low by keeping the groups small, operating out of my home and utilizing the vast information through free educational Web sites. Consider signing up for a camp with me this summer - it will be a week your child will never forget!

Oh - and I promised to share online the videos we watched on Friday...reminding us that SCIENCE ROCKS!!!





We didn't have time to watch these, but I wanted to share. This is the Will I. Am "I.Am.First Science is Rock and Roll" special. Lots of celebrities advocating science education...lots of kids doing COOL stuff with robotics!
