2025 Themes for Steam Plus

Pro Physicist - Physics Workshop

Physics is fun! Campers will use a snap block kit to experiment with simple machines: gears, levers, screws, inclined planes, pulleys, wheels and axles. After mastering the basics, students will choose more complex builds which may include the following choices: a spinning windmill, two-speed crane, force scale, sail car, mars robot, hammer machine, centrifuge, pinball game, centrifugal switch, ship’s lantern, and dozens of other models. At the end of this camp, you will have made several cool builds and understand the science concepts and physics formulas behind the mechanics.

Pro Anatomist - Anatomy and Physiology Dissections

Pro Anatomist is a unique, hands-on dissection camp where students will learn the art of dissection. Campers will dissect a sheep's heart, a sheep's kidney, a cow's eye, and finally a frog. The fine art projects are integrated with the science themes and depict the structure and function of organs and organ systems.

Pro Chemist - Crazy Chemical Reactions

Put your goggles and gloves on, and get ready to hit the chemistry laboratory. In this fun camp, you will do several chemistry experiments each day. Discover colorful changes with acids and bases, make fizzy and foamy reactions, investigate metals and salt s in electrochemical experiments, and much more. This S.T.E.A.M. camp is extra special because the art projects thoughtfully align with the science labs.

Pro Marine Biologist- Marine Animal Dissections

Ocean creatures are fascinating! Study, dissect and investigate several preserved marine specimens: the clam, squid, starfish, and dogfish shark. Create stunning artwork inspired by the marine organisms observed in the lab. All materials are included in the cost of the camp.
